The 27-year-old Austrian archer displayed exceptional accuracy during the 15-arrow match, rarely missing the eight-centimetre 10-ring. He only missed the four-centimetre X-ring twice in the first end, and once each in the second and third. Reflecting on his victory, he expressed his excitement at being in Mexico for his first Hyundai Archery World Cup match.
The Hyundai Archery World Cup this season consists of three stages instead of four. Therefore, points accumulated with strong finishes in Shanghai placed archers in a good position to qualify for the final based on rankings. Stage winners like Vennam and Wiener have already secured their spots in the final, while the recurve finals will conclude the competition in Shanghai on Sunday.
