The women’s compound trio of Nor Rizah Ishak, Nor Hayati Al-Madihah Hashim and Nur Hidayah Abdul Latip defeated Scotland 217-209 in the shoot for the bronze after a defeat by England in the semi-finals.
In the men’s individual recurve, Olympian Chu Sian was beaten 0-6 by India’s Tarundeep Rai 0-6 in the semi-finals and he lost 4-6 to another Indian, Rahul Banerjee, in the shoot for the bronze.
