Rio Olympics: Deepika, Bombayla advance to Round of 32

August 05, 2016 23:42

It was a disappointing finish at Rio Olympics for Indian women archers in Recurve archery ranking round after Deepika Kumari, who had maintained top spot in the early rounds, slipped to 20th, but qualified for the Round of 32 along with Bombayla Devi (24th).

The other Indian, Laxmirani (43rd) was out. India, who were at 5th spot midway in Women Team Ranking round finished in the 7th position.

Finishing amongst top 4 in Team ranking would have meant a direct entry to the Quarter-Finals.

India will play Columbia in the knockout round.
