S. Korea takes women's team bronze in compound archery

OKAZAKI, Japan — South Korea defeated Chinese Taipei for bronze in the women's compound archery team event at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games on Wednesday, bouncing right back after a narrow loss to the defending champion India earlier in the day. The trio of Park Ye-rin, Kang Yeon-seo and Park Jung-yoon beat Chen Yi-Hsuan, Chen Fang-Yi and Huang I-Jou by the score of 229-228 at Okazaki Chuo Sogo Park Multipurpose Square in Okazaki, about 50 kilometers southeast of Nagoya, the main host city. In compound archery, targets are set 50 meters away, 20 meters closer than recurve. Compound archers also use mechanical release aids and magnified sights, making the perfect score of 10 quite common. In the team competition, three archers per team each take two arrows per "end," with a maximum score of 60. The total points after four ends, or 24 arrows per team, determine the winner, with the maximum score being 240. South Korea shot a perfect 60 to Chinese Taipei's 59 in the first end, and the two countries matched each other with 58s in the next end. Chinese Taipei then edged out South Korea 56-55

Archery medalist says is grateful to be back in sport after quitting as teenager

Park Jung-yoon first entered the realm of competitive archery while in elementary school, but quit as she got into middle school. Now 29 years old, Park recalls that she wanted to explore other things in life. Years later, Park decided there was nothing she would rather do than shoot arrows for a living. When she was 25, Park picked up her bow and arrows again — first starting out in an amateur archery club that met only on weekends before eventually quitting her day job to focus on making the national team. Park won the national team trials for the compound discipline for the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games earlier this year. And on Wednesday, about four years after making her comeback to the sport, the South Korean collected two Asian Games medals — silver in the mixed team event and bronze in the women's team event. "I never regret decisions I make," Park said after the end of the mixed team final. "I am grateful to be doing something I love for a living." Park began her Asian Games campaign by joining teammates Kang Yeon-seo and Park Ye-rin for the women's team bronze in Wednesday's ear

NAGOYA, Japan — Korea's Jang Se-yun won the silver medal in the women's -52-kilogram judo event at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games on Wednesday, grabbing the country's first judo medal at the Games. Jang lost to Sita Kadamboeva of Uzbekistan by hansoku-make, or disqualification, in the event's final at Aichi International Arena in Nagoya, central Japan. It is Korea's first judo medal at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games. Xu Aoyu of China and Kokoro Fujishiro shared the bronze medals. Following two ippon (full point) wins in her round-of-16 and quarterfinal matches, Jang met Japan's Kokoro Fujishiro in the semifinals and advanced to the final after her opponent received a third shido, or yellow card, during sudden-death overtime. It was the first time that Jang had beaten Fujishiro in four meetings. In the final, Jang and Kadamboeva went through the regulation four minutes with two shidos each. The sudden-death overtime was tightly contested, but Jang was given a third shido and the gold medal went to Kadamboeva. In judo, receiving three shidos in a single match automatically results in a red card,

Wang Yudong scored first for China in the 22nd minute after fending off several Korean set-piece opportunities.

Lee pulled Korea even with a header goal in the 33rd minute, set up by Eom Ji-sung's corner. Lee, who joined the national team
