Notably, it is the Indian recurve women's first team medal of the season, as they appeared to be on the level with top seeds Korea in the semifinals before a few wayward arrows sunk their hopes of reaching the finals.
Meanwhile, the Indian men's recurve team, which included Olympians Tarundeep Rai and Jayanta Talukdar as well as debutant Neeraj Chauhan, was knocked out in the quarter-finals after losing to lower-ranked France 6-2.
