Tokyo: It was a disappointing start for India on Day 8 as archer Atanu Das lost to Takaharu Furukawa 6-4 at the archery Men’s Individual 1/8 Eliminations event.
Atanu Das shot a loose 8 in the opening arrow of the fifth set. Japan’s Takaharu Furukawa also ended with an 8, but does just about enough to eke out the set, and the match to enter the quarterfinals.
But overall, a fine show by Das after a poor ranking round (which cost him a spot in the mixed team).
Earlier Atanu had got the better of London Olympic Gold medalist Oh Jin-hyek in Pre-QF.
