The 2016 Rio Olympics women archers will begin the day in the Round of 16, but a gold medalist will be crowned before the day is over.
Thursday will be the final day of the Women’s individual archery competition, as the final 16 women archers will battle for their place on the podium. Looking for her second consecutive gold medal, South Korea’s Kim Bo-Bae will be the one to watch on Thursday. Bo-Bae won the gold at the 2012 London Olympics and has already won a gold in the team competition.
During the ranking round, the top three scores all belonged to members of the South Korea team, including Choi Mi-sun, who led the way with 669 points. Fellow countrywoman Chang Hye-jin advanced to the Round of 16 on Tuesday, toppling Ukraine’s Lidiia Sichenikova in the Round of 32.
On Friday, the archery events for the 2016 Rio Olympics will end when the men battle it out for medals. Top-seeded archer Kim Woo-jin was eliminated in the Round of 32, clearing the path for American Brady Ellison to possibly take home the gold. In order to make it to the Round of 16, Ellison had to defeat teammate Jake Kaminski, which he did by a score of 6-2.
