When Darrell Pace won the gold medal in archery in 1984, he wrapped up his victory on the third of four days of competition.

A four-time Olympian, Darrell Pace broke five Olympic records in archery at the 1976 and 1984 Games and won two individual titles. Pace was so dominant in 1984 that he had the title wrapped up after the third of four days of shooting. He was so confident, in fact, that he took a lunch break midway through the final day of shooting to meet the press. In 1988, Pace was on the silver medal-winning U.S. team.
