Asian Games 2023: Archery Rules
In archery event, competitors undergo a qualification phase, shooting 72 arrows to determine rankings for the matchplay phase.
During match play, archers engage in best-of-five sets, earning two points for winning a set and one point each in the event of a draw.
Individual sets consist of three arrows, while mixed team events use four arrows, and team events utilize six arrows per set. The first archer or team to amass six points wins the matchplay, progressing through the rounds.
In the event of a tie after five sets, a tiebreaker is held. In individual archery, the closest arrow to the target wins; in team events, the combined score of all archers wins.
