All 88 athletes underwent Covid-19 testing at the airport and were found to be negative. Their PVC cards were also validated at the airport.
Archery would host five events in the upcoming Tokyo Olympics — men’s individual, women’s individual, men’s team, women’s team and mixed team. The event will get underway from July 23 and will run up to July 31 at Yumenoshima Park Archery Field.
Archery is one event where India is yet to win a medal at the Olympics. However, this time around, the country is confident of its archery contingent as all four qualified competitors go into the competition having done well in their previous competitions.
