Rhode in record books, more chapters to come


LONDON (Reuters) - Kim Rhode could finish her shooting career as the greatest U.S. Olympian ever but it will be one spent mostly in obscurity defending a sport she maintains is misunderstood.

A gold medal victory in the women's skeet on Sunday put Rhode into the record books as the first American to medal in five consecutive Olympics, and at just 33 years old, competing in a sport that has seen winners in their 60s, she could easily take part in five more Games before putting away her shotgun.
