Sembawang Open 08
Wilson posted at 2:34 AM


Went for my second archery competition last weekend and here's how it go.

On the first day was supposed to shoot two rounds for the qualifiers but after we finish shooting one round, there was a thunderstorm hence the second round was cancelled and the first round score was taken. I shot a score of 202 which was close but slightly lower than average. At night, received a call from Vincent, my team captain that I actually qualified for the top 8, as the 8th seed!!! What a pleasant surprise.

Team SMU

First day score sheet

The next day, went back early in the morning and was told that I was tied on score with the 7th place the previous day, so we had a shoot-out to decide who is the 7th seed. Tied again after the first arrow and won him on the second arrow, and I was the 7th seed. So instead of meeting the 1st seed, I will be meeting the 2nd seed for the individual knock-out round instead.

Fighting for 7th Seed

Quarter-finals: A very tight match as the lead changes hand after each round, eventually I won by 1 pt to knock out the 2nd seed and progress to the semis.
Quarter-final against the 2nd seed

Semi-finals: Fought back from 4 pt deficit to tie at the third round. At the crucial 4th round, I lost by 1 pt. Just 1 pt and if I have gotten 2pt more, I would have gotten at least a second.

The sad Semis

3rd/4th placing: I lost my cool after losing my semis and actually twisted my sight in the process. Missed lots of arrow and got thrashed in the shoot out. Therefore, got a 4th placing and medal-less. Haiz.3rd/4th Placing

My team qualified for the team event as well. We got knocked out after the first round after losing by 4pts. Mostly my fault I have to admit, as after losing at the Semis I was shooting atrociously. Perhaps I am not mentally strong enough to lose by one point and still thinking of the last shot which I did not do that well.
Team Event
2pt shy of a silver medal
Empty handed but happy team

I shall practise even harder this time round as in a month's time, I will be participating in the SAFRA open. This time round, I really wish to win something as it might well be my best chance to win something this year.

Still related to archery, after Legolas, I've found another Idol Archer: 李智雅 as 秀芝妮in 《太王四神记》
