Team China have skipped this event for Paris I think

The S Koreans are still holding very strong positions sweeping 5 out of six medals in the men and women recurve - individuals events, also gold in the Team Men's recurve and bronze in Team Men's compound, silver in Team women's compound

They are the biggest winners of the competition with 3 gold 4 silver and 2 bronze

Other teams like usa, russia, mexico have scored more than one medal
