nitinsanker 187 Posted April 28 #13 Share Posted April 28 India at the hyundai world Cup@shanghai.. Pretty much all countries were here at the first world cup of 2024 First compound saturday 1. The *women's team*.... This team of aditi our 16 year old world champ, the superb vennam 'the venom' surekha and parneet kaur is super dominating the world and they thrashed an experienced Italian side 236-225 2. Then the *men's team* also wrapped up the Netherlands team ( including world no 1 in style schloesser) in style 238-231 3. Then it was a close fight in the *compound mixed pair* with estonia siblings the jaatmas hanging tough but abhishek and vennam were able to eke out a slim 158-157 4. Then it was *women's individual final* with vennam against an in-form becerra of Mexico.... Vennam was below her wonted best with a 146 in the finals but becerra blew a 2 point lead with a last shot 8 .... Then again vennam shot a 9 but becerra also shot a 9 and vennam won the gold on closer distance.... 4 golds 5. Then it was priyansh against nico of austria against priyansh in *mens individual*... Nico shot a. Perfect 150 and won over priyansh who shot a good 147 .... So india ended compound saturday with 4 golds and 1 silver in 5 events.... . Dominated the world... What a performance from our world beating compound team strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First *mens team* .... India vs the much storied Korea team... In an astonishing game India thrashed the koreans 5-1 .... *Gasp* a gold in recurve Then India was up in the bronze match in mixed pairs against Mexico.... They won 6-0 to give us a second medal in recurve Then *women's individual* deepika kumar who had beaten a korean jeon in the QF was up against a second korean Nam in the SF .. . And it was expected the korean would take revenge but deepika was superb and won 6-0.... On to the finals and yet another korean was there lim... Would deepika decimate the entire korean team one after the other.... But alas not be and Lim won gold and deepika the silver.... But 🤩🤩🤩🤩 wow... Three medals in recurve 1Gold , 1 Silver and 1Bronze in recurve Sunday...... *Yes what a world Cup.. . Best performance ever at archery world Cup by India at least as per my memory.... 8 medals ( 5G, 2S, 1B out of 10 events)* ...... strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
