The Indian duo totalled 1431 (70 Xs) in the qualification and broke the mixed team 144-arrow score, which was previously held by Denmark's Tanja Gellenthien and Mathias Fullerton at 1429 from the Krakow-Malopolska 2023 European Games.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIt's special because the mixed team is newly added to the Olympics and we\u2019ve been having such small achievements over time,\u201d the 22-year-old Rishabh was quoted as saying by World Archery.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWe opened the season with the mixed team gold together (Florida 2025) but we didn't shoot the mixed team the next two stages together. \"Now here in the fourth stage we are back together, and we both shot good so it's interesting and we are happy with the consistency we have together,\" he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Meanwhile, Rishabh and Jyothi poled in the compound men\u2019s and women's individual qualification, grabbing the top seedings in both individual and team events.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rishabh stayed on top of the 85-athlete field throughout the evening at Vallehermoso Stadium and was on course to beat Braden Gellenthien\u2019s 718 individual compound men's world record at 30 arrows with a perfect 300.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
But, 68 out of 72 arrows in the 10-ring (35Xs) is still a magnificent score and the Shanghai 2025 \u2013 stage two \u2013 bronze medallist\u2019s 716 is a new personal best.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Other Indian in action, Priyansh (710) and Aman Saini (709) were the next best from the country, placing 10th and 11th overall, respectively.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
In the compound women\u2019s, Asian Games champion Jyothi too set an international personal best at 715 (35Xs) simultaneously grabbing top seed in her event.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Other Indian in action, Priyansh (710) and Aman Saini (709) were the next best from the country, placing 10th and 11th overall, respectively.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Parneet Kaur (702) and 16-year-old debutant Prithika Pradeep (699) secured seventh and 10th places respectively, contributing to India\u2019s top seeding in the women\u2019s team event with a total score of 2116 points, ahead of Mexico (2108) and South Korea (2095).<\/p>\r\n\r\n
