Amber English outlasted defending champion Diana Bacosi of Italy and world record-holder Wei Meng of China to win the women's skeet competition Monday. Bacosi held a one-shot lead through the middle of the contest but missed a couple of times down the stretch while English stayed consistent. The 31-year-old U.S. shooter's final score of 56 out of a possible 60 is three points off the world record held by Meng.
