Indian archers get Olympic gold medallist Korean coach before World Cup

The Hindu  

In a big boost to Indian archery ahead of the 2024 Paris Games, the national federation has hired Olympic gold medal-winning coach Baek Woong Ki to work with the recurve team. "He has been made India recurve coach and will be till Asian Games and then the Olympics," Indian archery high performance director and Dronacharya Awardee Sanjeeva Singh told PTI. Barring the trio of 2010 Asian Games silver medallist Tarundeep Rai, two-time Olympian Atanu Das, and World Championships silver medallist compound archer Jyothi Surekha Vennam, the Indian squad have quite a few new names. The biggest name to miss out in the compound section is top-ranked Indian Abhishek Verma, a five-time World Cup gold medal winner and a former World Championship silver medallist.
