Italy's Gabriele Rosetti and Diana Bacosi claimed the gold medal in the inaugural mixed team skeet competition at the 2024 Paris Olympics, narrowly defeating the United States team of Vincent Hancock and Austen Smith 45-44. This marked a historic moment as it was the first time Hancock, a four-time gold medalist, earned a medal that wasn't gold in his Olympic career. Rosetti and Bacosi needed to hit seven of their last eight targets to secure the victory, while China's Jiang Yiting and Lyu Jianlin took home the bronze after beating India's Maheshwari Chauhan and Anant Jeet Singh Naruka 44-43. Hancock's silver adds to his impressive Olympic resume, making him a five-time medalist. The mixed team skeet event replaced the mixed team trap competition from the Tokyo Olympics, showcasing a new format for Olympic shooting sports. Additionally, China secured its fifth shooting gold medal of the Games in the men's 25-meter rapid fire pistol event.
