The bronze medal team matches also took place today, with Australia, Türkiye, India, Chinese Taipei, Mexico, Ukraine and Spain all taking medals. ”We all feel like a family, said Ximena Estrada of the Mexican under-21 compound team, who beat Spain 223-220. “Almost too much chemistry. It’s a honour to represent our country,” she said.
Australia’s under-21 men’s medal was perhaps the biggest win of the day, after they beat third seeds India and took the second seeds USA to a shoot-off. ”We came here expecting to medal, we’ve been putting a lot of work in. I think we’ve very well earned it.” said Jai Crawley.
Chinese Taipei won their under-18 compound men’s bronze medal without having to shoot a match after Canada, the winners of the quarterfinal in the opposite side of the draw, forgot to sign their scorecard and were disqualified.
Competition continues with individual eliminations and team gold medal matches on Friday.
