A new-look Indian squad will take the field at the Asia Cup 2024 stage-3 archery world ranking tournament, starting in Suwon, the Republic of Korea on Tuesday.
In all, 16 Indian archers - eight men and eight women - will be in action in the third leg of the continental meet. Live streaming of both recurve and compound archery events will be available in India.
Deepika Kumari, a three-time Olympian, won the gold medal at the first stage of the Asia Cup held in Baghdad but skipped the Suwon meet to prepare for the third stage of the Archery World Cup scheduled in Antalya, Turkiye, from June 18.
The Archery World Cup in Antalya will be a qualifying event for the Paris 2024 Olympics and India is yet to secure a direct quota in women’s recurve archery.
India’s top compound archers Jyothi Surekha Vennam, Aditi Swami and Abhishek Verma, all Asian Games gold medallists, have also given the Suwon meet a miss.
Compound archer Kushal Dalal, who won the men’s team gold and individual silver in Baghdad, is the only Indian archer returning to compete at stage-3.
A total of 158 archers from 18 countries, including 81 men and 77 women, are expected to compete at the Suwon leg of the Asia Cup 2024.
India clinched 14 medals - nine gold, four silver and one bronze - at the first stage in Baghdad in February. The second stage was scheduled to be held in Thailand but was cancelled.
The third stage of the Asia Cup, to be held at the Suwon World Cup Stadium, will conclude on June 9.
