Mohamed qualified as a lone shooter for the Hungarian squad in men's 10 m air pistol at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. Although he failed to make the cut to the Games, Mohamed had accepted a late wildcard entry invitation by ISSF for another Olympic chance with a minimum qualifying score of 565, his personal best set at the ISSF World Cup meet in Zagreb, Croatia a year earlier.[2][3] Mohamed launched a substantial 553 out of a possible 600 to pick up a forty-fifth position from an experienced field of forty-seven shooters, failing to advance to the final.[4]
