Archery World Cup: Teenager Prithika Pradeep Claims Bronze, Powers India To Compound Team Silver
Fatin Nurfatehah Mat Salleh: The 17-year-old Prithika Pradeep announced herself on the senior international stage with a memorable two-medal haul, securing an individual bronze before playing a pivotal role in India's silver-medal finish in the women's compound team event at Stage 4 of the Archery World Cup in Madrid on Saturday.
Competing in her maiden World Cup podium event, Prithika produced a composed display in the women's individual compound bronze-medal contest, defeating Turkiye's Hazal Burun 145-142 to earn her first World Cup medal. The young Indian had earlier missed out on a place in the final after going down 144-142 to Malaysia's Fatin Nurfatehah Mat Salleh in a closely fought semifinal.
The result marked another significant milestone for Prithika, who had claimed silver at the Asian Archery Championships in Dhaka last year and continues to establish herself as one of India's emerging compound archers.
