Indian compound archers delivered a dominant performance, clinching the mixed team gold and women’s team silver, while also sweeping the men’s individual podium at the Asia Cup-World Ranking Tournament Stage 1, here on Friday.
India also bagged two silver medals in the recurve section to take their tally to two gold, four silver and four bronze, surpassing their eight-medal haul in 2025. But in gold medal count, India fared poorly as compared to the last edition when they clinched five yellow metals.
It boiled down to their poor show in the recurve section where none of the archers could manage a gold, while they returned empty-handed in men’s individual section and mixed team event. In 2025, India had a gold-silver finish in men’s recurve individual, while mixed team bagged a silver.
The highlight of the day was a clean sweep in the men’s compound individual section, where Uday Kamboj edged past Prathamesh Jawkar 145-144 in an all-Indian final to clinch his maiden international gold, while Rajat Chauhan secured a bronze.
