The story
Pia Hansen won the women's double trap gold medal in shooting at Sydney 2000 on 19 September 2000. The title went to Sweden, with the competition held at Sydney International Shooting Centre, Liverpool, Australia.
How it unfolded

The wider picture
This Olympic shooting event had its own equipment, target and qualification requirements. The final ranking belongs to the specified discipline, rather than to an overall shooting championship. Where a qualification score was carried into the final, the aggregate determined the medals. Rifle, pistol and shotgun totals used different scales, making comparisons across those disciplines misleading.
