Vincent Hancock, a four-time Olympic gold medalist, clinched his first silver in the mixed team skeet competition at the Paris Olympics. The U.S. team narrowly lost to Italy 45-44 in a tense final.

Italian shooters Gabriele Rosetti and Diana Bacosi, both gold medalists in 2016, secured their victory by hitting the crucial final targets. Hancock competed alongside Austen Smith, who recently won a bronze in the women's individual skeet event.
