India's top compound archer, Jyothi, was originally placed third in the final standings of the championship. However, the medal standings were revised after Mexico\u2019s Marina Bernal was disqualified for violating anti-doping regulations.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The doping sample collected from Bernal on September 29, 2025, resulted in her disqualification in accordance with World Archery Federation Rule 3, leading to an official revision of the final results.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The 23-year-old Bernal did not challenge the doping offense after testing positive for an anabolic steroid (nandrolone) in an out-of-competition test in September and is banned until after the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
According to information received from the Archery Association of India, the decision was confirmed by World Archery on Monday. Great Britain\u2019s Ella Gibson has consequently been awarded the bronze medal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Meanwhile, Jyothi Surekha is currently preparing for the Archery World Cup Stage 4 in Madrid, for which she has been included in the national squad.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
