Eller to Double Trap Final

From the Associated Press

Glenn Eller set an Olympic record in qualifying for the double trap final Tuesday.

Eller's score of 145 was one better than that of Ahmed Al-Maktoum of United Arab Emirates in the 2004 Olympics.

Eller led by four targets heading into Tuesday's final round. Francesco D'Aniello of Italy was second, followed by Jeffrey Holguin of Yorba Linda, Calif.

Eller hit 48 targets in the first round of qualifying, 49 in the second and 48 in the third.
