Days after missing out on a Tokyo Olympics berth, Indian women’s recurve team bagged the gold medal at the Archery World Cup. team of Deepika Kumari, Ankita Bhakat and Komalika Bari defeated favorites Mexico 5-1 without dropping a set in the final. The final saw them win their second successive gold medal at the World Cup this year, and sixth overall.

The trio were at their best, shooting four 10s with one X (closest to the centre) for a 57-57 score in the first set. The Indian’s impeccable accuracy got the Mexican team which featured London 2012 silver medallist Aida Roman, Alejandra Valencia and Ana Vazquez under pressure.

Having lost the second set by three points with a poor 52, Deepika and Co. bounced back to take the third by just one point. The final saw the Mexicans suffer a second successive defeat this year.
