The curtain falls on the penultimate day of competition for the Archery World Cup in France. The Paris demonstration comes to life, unfortunately without Italy that in the last few days he had to leave the tournament prematurely in the various draws.
The Turkish Yesim Bostan / Songul Lok / Ayse Bera Suzer won in the women’s team compound for a single point on British Layla Annison / Elizabeth Foster / Ella Gibson. Turkey attempted to replicate the result in the male as well, a failed mission for Batuhan Akcaoglu/Emircan Haney/Yakup Yildiz who had to raise the white flag for four lengths against the hosts Quentin Baraer / Jean Philippe Boulch / Nicolas Girard.
Very interesting also the duel in the mixed tournament with the third place for the English Adam Carpenter / Ella Gibson, able to get the better of Lisell Jaatma / Robin Jaatma (Estonia) by a single point. Success went to Jyothi Surekha Vennam / Abhishek Verma (India) after a good fight against the France by Sophie Dodemont/Jean Philipp Boulch.
