Amr El-Gaiar (Arabic: عمرو الجيار; born 19 February 1974 in Cairo) is an Egyptian sport shooter.[1] He was selected to compete for Egypt at the 2004 Summer Olympics, and also won a gold medal in skeet shooting at the 2003 African Championships in Pretoria, South Africa.[2] A full-fledged member of the Egyptian Shooting Federation, El-Gaiar trains under national head coach and five-time Olympian Mohamed Khorshed at Doki Shooting Club in his native Cairo.[3]
El-Gaiar qualified for the Egyptian team in the men's skeet at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. He had registered a minimum qualifying score of 117 to join with his fellow shooter and then incoming three-time Olympian Mostafa Hamdy, and fill in the second Olympic quota for Egypt from his successful top finish at the African Championships less than a year earlier.[4] Al-Gaiar shot 115 targets out of a possible 125 in the qualifying round to force a three-way tie with Great Britain's Richard Brickell and the Netherlands' Jan-Cor van der Greef for thirty-fourth place from an immense field of forty-one shooters.[5]
