The Indian women’s and mixed pair compound archery teams signed off with silver medals after lop-sided losses to Colombia at the World Championships here.


India were in pursuit of their first ever gold medal at the world event. For a country that doesn’t have a gold yet, India have climbed the most podiums at the event—10— appearing in eight finals and leaving with silver each time.


The star Indian mixed pair duo of Abhishek Verma and Jyothi Surekha Vennam, who stood fourth in the ranking round, started off with a one-point lead but thereafter it was a story of Colombian dominance. The Indians went down by a four-point margin (150-154).


The seventh seeded women’s team of Jyothi, Muskan Kirar and Priya Gurjar, on the other hand, lost by a margin of five points (224-229) against the troika of Sara Lopez, Alejandra Usquiano and Nora Valdez.
