Archery, Compound: India will not have a perfect 5/5
After the triple gold medals yesterday, the question was if India would be able to make a complete sweep with 5 gold medals in compound as they did in Hangzhou last edition.
It has been answered nice and early today. It'll not be 5/5.
Both Indians in women's compound individual have been knocked out before the semis.
Jyothi Surekha Vennam was bested by a 14-year-old South Korean, who had shot a perfect 150 in Round of 16.
Ganesh Thirumuru, in men's compound individual, will now have the onus on him to defend India's title in the discipline.
Archery, Women's Compound Individual QF: Chikitha EXITS!
The first two ends do go in favour of qualification topper and two-time gold medallist Chikitha Taniparthi.
She shoots 29 twice, while her Indonesian opponent doesn't falter shooting 30 apiece.
The third end once again has Chikitha shoots a 29, but this time the Indonesian could only manage a 29.
Chikitha, however, comes alive in the fourth end. She again manages only 29 but her opponent has suddenly strayed way wide into the eight range. Not once, but twice!
All Chikitha as to do now is hold on to her one-point advantage.
And she can't. The wind seems to be affecting her. She has strayed to an 8 herself with her first shot in the final end. A 9 follows. Only 27 for her.
The Indonesian has a 29.
India will not defend its women's compound individual gold medal. This was always on the cards with Chikitha's form in the team events yesterday.
IND 143-144 INA
