Reigning World University Games champion Sahil Jadhav clinched his maiden Archery World Cup medal in only his second appearance on the global circuit, winning a bronze in the compound men’s event of the World Cup Stage 2 on Saturday.
The 25-year-old archer defeated Denmark’s veteran player-cum-coach Martin Damsbo 147-144 in the bronze medal Playoff to secure India’s first medal of the ongoing event.
Jadhav was trailing by one point after the opening end as the 40-year-old Damsbo started with three perfect 10s. But the Indian responded strongly in the second end, shooting a perfect 30, while the Dane managed 27, helping Jadhav move ahead 59-57 overall.
From there, Jadhav stayed firmly in control, dropping just two points from his final nine arrows to seal a memorable three-point win.
