NEW DELHI: India experienced a monumental medal high at the recently-concluded Archery World Cup Stage 1 in Shanghai, where the trio of Tarundeep Rai, Pravin Jadhav and Dhiraj Bommadevara stunned Olympic champions South Korea to clinch a rare gold in the men’s recurve discipline.
But not many would know that the country paid a big price for the indiscretion on the part of Indian team officials who were not only fined but also suspended by the World Archery (WA) – the sport’s global governing body – for flouting WA’s rulebook.
