Domestic quarrels in the Korean national team for both men and women Gold and silver sweep

 

 

Im Si-hyun (Korea National Sport University) defeated Jeon Hoon-yeong (Incheon City Hall) in the individual finals of the 2nd Archery World Cup, which was a family dispute between the Korean national team, and won the gold medal.

In the men's individual match, which was also a family fight, Lee Woo-seok (Kolon) defeated Kim Woo-jin (Cheongju City Hall). Lee Woo-seok achieved two gold medals, including winning the team event.

Im Si-hyun won 6-5 (28-29 28-28 27-26 29-28 27-28 <10 -9>) Won after a close race.

As a result, Im Si-hyun, as the ace of the archery team, once again reached the top of the World Cup after winning the individual event in the first competition held in Shanghai, China in April, raising expectations of a gold medal at the upcoming Paris Olympics.

Im Si-hyun defeated India's Deepika Kumari 6-2 (28-26 28-28 28-27 27-27) in the semifinals and advanced to the finals.

Hoonyoung Jeon defeated Alejandra Valencia (Mexico) 6-2 (30-29 26-27 29-26 28-26) to advance to the final.

As a result, it became a family battle between two Korean athletes competing for the gold medal. Im Si-hyeon and Jeon Hoon-young formed the women's national team with Nam Soo-hyun (Suncheon City Hall) and took second place in the team event against China. It was a tight match as the players who reached the finals of the team event met. In the first set, Jeon Hoon-young, who shot two 10-point shots, took the first set score, leading 29-28. In the second set, the two players shot 28 points side by side and shared one point each. From the 3rd set, Im Si-hyun started to exert himself. She scored 27 points with a total of 9 points, while Jeon Hoon-young scored 10 points and two 8 points to give the set score. Im Si-hyun, who caught the trend, took a 29-28 lead in the fourth set and completely set the tone with a set score of 5-3. Jeon Hoon-young did not break down easily. She took a 28-27 lead in the fifth set, leveling the match at 5-5. The winner was decided in the shoot-off that followed. Im Si-hyun, who scored 10 points, defeated Jeon Hoon-young, who scored 9 points, to win the gold medal. Im Si-hyun said at a meeting with reporters after the game, “I was happy to meet (Jeon) Hoon-young in the finals. “(The opponent) was Hoonyoung, so I think we were able to have a little more fun,” she said. “I think we went in and cheered each other on before the shoot-off, and tried to make it really fun.” Jeon Hoon-young congratulated her younger brother on the national team for winning, saying, “I also thought it was a good match for both (Lim) Si-hyeon or I, so I didn’t think much differently.” He continued, “The team competition held in the morning itself had a lot of regrets (it only resulted in a silver medal). “So in the afternoon (when the individual competition was held), I played with the thought of ‘let’s reduce my regrets,’ and I think that helped me play,” he added. The men's individual match that followed, like the women's individual match, was played out due to a family fight between the Korean national team. Lee Woo-seok and Kim Woo-jin, who defeated Le Quoc Phong (Vietnam) and Abdullah Yildirmís (Turkiye), respectively, in the semifinals, met at the final hurdle. Previously, together with Kim Je-deok (Yecheon County Office), they won the gold medal by beating Germany in the men's team event. Then, a fierce battle took place for the second crown, and Lee Woo-seok defeated Kim Woo-jin 6-5 (28-28 29-30 29-28 28-30 30-28 <10-9>). The game started tightly at 28-28 in the first set, but Kim Woo-jin took the lead in the second set. The balance seemed to be balanced when Lee Woo-seok took the points in the third set, but Kim Woo-jin took the lead again by winning the fourth set. Lee Woo-seok showed off his potential. He won the 5th set and took the game to a shoot-off, and won with 10 points, which was higher than Kim Woo-jin, who shot 9 points. Lee Woo-seok, who won two gold medals, met with reporters after the game and expressed his thoughts, saying, “It was due to my condition on the day of the game, but I think luck played a big role.” He continued, “I’m not in very good condition right now. In terms of condition, last year was better. I'm slowly pulling it up now. “I will try to show off my skills at the Olympics by maximizing the 3rd World Cup in Turkye and the Paris Olympics,” he said. “The goal is, of course, to win three gold medals.” “The top priority is to win the team event,” he said emphatically. Kim Woo-jin, who lost to his teammate, said, “I think I gave him some leeway. I should have shot 10 points in the shoot-off, but I couldn't, so I relieved the burden on (Lee) Wooseok. “I think that’s why Wooseok was able to shoot better.” Meanwhile, the Korean national team won three gold and three silver medals in the men's and women's recurve event alone at this World Cup, giving the green light to the Paris Olympics. In compound, which is not an Olympic event, Han Seung-yeon won one bronze medal in the women's individual event.  토토사이트
