ARCHERY | Abhishek Verma’s scintillating form a good omen ahead of big ticket events

The Hindu  

Armed with a positive mindset and a brand new bow set, experienced compound archer Abhishek Verma stamped his class on his return to the World Cup by securing his third individual gold medal in Medellin, Colombia. I will continue with this set up to the World championships and then go for another one for the Asian Games.” Although some archers prefer sticking to their old equipment, 34-year-old Verma thinks differently. I just forget about my last performance and focus on the present.” Referring to his fine track record against former World champion Schloesser, Verma said, “I have beaten him thrice and every time it was through a tie-breaker!” Indian compound archers, including Jawkar who won the World Cup Stage-2 gold, have done well this season and Verma feels the collective show will help the country in bigger events. Ask him about his personal target for the upcoming big-ticket events, Verma —who bagged a team silver in the World championships, a mixed team bronze in the World Games and a team gold and team and individual silver medals in the Asian Games — said, “I want to perform well.” India's compound women team starts collecting medals in Medellin. 👏🇮🇳🥉#ArcheryWorldCuppic.twitter.com/JifS0A6Fih — World Archery June 14, 2023 He thinks Indian compound archers have “a better chance” of winning medals in the Asian Games and can get a “good result” in the tougher World championships.
