Kim Woo-jin secured his third gold medal at the Paris Games in a nail-biting shoot-off during the men's individual final against Brady Ellison of the USA. The archery competition at Invalides witnessed an intense battle between the two exceptional athletes, with Ellison initially taking the lead by winning the opening set. Kim swiftly responded by claiming the second set, setting the stage for a closely contested match.
The momentum swung back and forth as Ellison and Kim exchanged victories in the third and fourth sets, ultimately leading to a decisive fifth set. Both archers displayed exceptional skill and precision, scoring perfect 10s with each of their three arrows, forcing the final into a one-arrow shoot-off.
