Paralympic 2024 Para-Archery: Sarita, Rakesh advance, Shyam loses tiebreaker- Highlights

The players are out at the venue!

Here is the format of the event!

Here is a refresher on the format for the compound archery:

The match will be competed in five rounds, each round having three arrows each for the para-athletes.

At the end of five rounds (15 arrows in total for each archer), the archer with most points wins the game.

In case of a tie, we go to a tie-breaker shoot and if the score remains the same even then, the arrow that is closest to the center is deemed the winning shot.

Sarita's match is up next!

She will go up against Malaysian Nur Jannaton Abdul Jalil in the round of 32 tie. 

She will have to not only battle her opponent but also the challenging weather, with rain coming in heavy at the venue. 

Heavy rain!

It is raining heavily at the Les Invalides arena. 

Challenging conditions for the archers.
