Eatonton native Vincent Hancock parlayed his strong lead going into the finals of men's skeet competition into another gold medal.
Only six shooters advanced to the finals.
Hancock, who won the gold medal in Beijing in 2008, broke the Olympic record with a five round score of 123 in the five rounds of qualifying.
Anders Goldberg of Denmark was one target behind at 122.
Two shooters made 121.
No shooter in the history of men's Olympic skeet shooting has ever won two gold medals.
Hancock topped his own Olympic record by hitting 123 targets in qualifying earlier Tuesday, and was a perfect 25-for-25 in the medal round to wrap up the gold.
