Career
Currently living in Doha, Qatar since 2010, Skoromnov holds his dual citizenship to compete internationally in shooting. Skoromnov qualified for his native Uzbek squad in rifle shooting at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. Skoromnov started off with the 10 m air rifle, where he shot a steady 592 out of a possible 600 to tie for eighteenth with three other shooters.
Four days later, Skoromnov came up with an ill-fated aim to get 591 points in the qualifying round of his signature event, the 50 m rifle prone, that saw him toppling down the leaderboard to a twenty-fourth in a 46-shooter field
In his third and last event, the 50 m rifle 3 positions, Skoromnov marked a scintillating 394 in prone, 380 in standing, and 387 in kneeling to collect a total score of 1161 points and tie for twelfth place with two-time Olympian Timothy Lowndes of Australia and Olympic silver medalist Christian Lusch of Germany, having been close to an Olympic final by just three points.
