Kneale selected for Olympic Games

Manx shooter one of six in squad

Manx shooter Tim Kneale has been selected to represent Great Britain at the Olympic Games in Rio next year.

In September, the 33-year-old won individual silver at the ISSF World Championship in Italy - as well as team gold.

That performance won Great Britain an Olympic quota place in the double trap competition.

Kneale is also the current world record holder for the discipline when he scored 148 out of 150 targets at a World Cup event in Munich in June last year.

Tim is one of only six shooters to make the British team for the Olympics in Brazil.
