Archery News

At Archery World Cup - stage 4, Wroclaw, Poland


Recurve Women Team - Gold medal
(2) India bt (1) Korea 219-215

The Indian women completed back to back World Cup champions in an upset over WR #1 Korea ... Koreans were by far the strongest team during qualifications and elimination rounds this week as they never scored below 222 points ... So the task would not be easy for Deepika Kumari, Bombayla Devi Laishram and Rimil Buriuly against the three Olympic gold medalists Ok-Hee Yun, Bo Bae Ki and Hye Jin Chang ... But like Antalya in last world cup Indian women adjusted better in windy conditions in the final end ... Surprisingly lots of 7s scored and until first 15 arrows both teams were tied, 163-163 but Indians hit better arrows in the final end ... Indians managed four 10s arrows in the final 6 shots and that helped them for exciting victory against World and Olympics champions.
