Shooting at the 1996 Summer Olympics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shooting at the 1996 Summer Olympics took place at the Wolf Creek Shooting Complex near Atlanta, Georgia. Competitions were held in ten men's events and five women's events. For men's and women's Double Trap, it was the first Olympic competition, and because a women's shotgun event thus had been added, it was also the first time that no Olympic shooting competitions were open to both genders. This caused some controversy as the winner of the open Skeet event at the Barcelona games in 1992 was a woman, China's Shan Zhang, and Double Trap, the only event she would now be allowed to compete in, is quite unsimilar to Skeet. Women's Trap and Skeet were added to the program in 2000.
