No national flag leaves Kuwaiti champ in tears

Kuwaiti marksman Fehaid Aldeehani battled wet and blustery conditions to win the men's double trap event on Wednesday, becoming the first athlete to ever win a gold medal while competing under the Olympic flag.

But the 49-year-old, six-time Olympian said he was sad he could not win for Kuwait, banned last year by the International Olympic Committee.

Aldeehani defeated Marco Innocenti of Italy in the duel for gold, nailing 26 orange targets out of 30. Innocenti had 24. The bronze medal went to Britain's Steven Scott.
