Archery at the 1988 Summer Olympics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

Four events were contested in archery at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul. These events included team competitions for the first time in modern Olympic archery. Men's and women's individual competitions continued to be part of the schedule as well.

The format for the individual competition was altered for the first time since the 1972 Summer Olympics. In Seoul, instead of all archers using the double FITA round to determine rankings, a sort of elimination plan was introduced. Each archer shot a single FITA round to determine initial rankings. Most archers were cut from the competition after this, with only 24 advancing. These archers then shot one-fourth the number of arrows normal for a FITA round, with these scores being used to drop more archers. This process was repeated until only 8 archers finished the fourth segment of the second round.

One archer from each of the three nations with multiple archers fell in this round, leaving Korea and the United States with two archers advancing as Finland joined the Soviet Union, the Netherlands, and Japan in qualifying one archer for the final. Pace, the defending gold medallist, missed the cut by one place. Yamamoto, the defending silver medallist, avoided that fate by shooting two points better than Pace to place eighth.

[edit] Women's individual semifinal

Eventual medallists are highlighted in the color of their medal. Each archer shot one quarter of the normal number of arrows in a FITA round. The 36 arrows were split evenly between the four distances of 70 metres, 60 metres, 50 metres, and 30 metres. The top 8 archers moved on to the semifinals.

There was very little movement in the rankings, as seven of the archers retained the same positions they had in the quarterfinal. Korea again advanced all three of its archers. The remaining Soviet women both advanced, though no other nation advanced more than one archer. Sweden, Great Britain, and West Germany each sent one archer to fill out the top eight.
