Asian Games Live | Men’s Archery- Atanu Das bows out in quarterfinal

 

India’s Atanu Das had a golden opportunity to move to the semi-final and continue India’s great run in the archery competition at the Asian Games 2023. However, he failed to convert it as he shot two nines and one 10 against his Chinese opponent’s two 10s and nine. The match was tied after both the archers won 5 set points each. 

 

In the shoot-off, both shot 10, but Atanu’s arrow was further away from the centre point than his Chinese opponent and therefore he had to bow out in the Shoot-Off.
