Archery | Abhishek and Jyothi triumph

The two shoot 150 in the summit clash against Mohit and Muskan respectively

In an unprecedented finish to the compound competitions, Abhishek Verma and V. Jyothi Surekha shot perfect scores of 150 in their respective gold medal matches to emerge as the men’s and women’s champions respectively at the 40th NTPC National archery championships here on Wednesday.

It was a commendable show from both the archers — who bagged a mixed team silver in the World championships in Yankton, USA, recently — as they overcame fatigue to give their best.

It was Jyothi’s first 150 at the Nationals, while it was Abhishek’s first on a podium setting at the domestic level.
