Penny Smith has claimed Australia's second medal on day five of the Paris Olympics, winning bronze in the women's trap shooting.
The 29-year old only just scraped into the final, after she finished the qualification round in a three-way tie for sixth, but won a shoot-off to progress.
Once there, she outlasted her opponents, to finish third.
It is also the world number 11's first Olympic medal, after Smith was sixth in the trap and mixed trap team at the Tokyo Games.
It came 20 years after Suzanne Balogh claimed gold in the same event at the Athens Games.
It's Australia's 12th medal in shooting, and sixth bronze.
"To my family back home, to everyone watching, everyone that supported me through the highs and the lows, to come home with a bronze medal is just phenomenal," Smith told Nine after the event.
"I did it the hard way having to shoot-off to get into the final and then kept chipping away at it.
"Coming home with a bronze medal, you know, adding another one to the Camperdown tally, Grace Brown winning one the other day (in cycling's individual time trial)."
It was a historic day on the shooting range, with Adriana Ruano Oliva claiming Guatemala's first ever Olympic gold, and an Olympic Record, as she led from start to finish.
It's only Guatemala's third ever Olympic medal.
