They will thus try to win a first world title in the history of women’s archery in recurve, the Olympic category.
French archers Lisa Barbelin, Audrey Adiceom and Caroline Lopez qualified for the team final of the world championships in Berlin on Friday, securing a medal one year from the Olympics on home soil in Paris. In the semi-final, the French women dominated the Netherlands 6-0 and will face the Germans, who defeated the Mexicans (6-0) in the other half, in the final scheduled for 3:25 p.m.
They will thus try to win a first world title in the history of women’s archery in recurve, the Olympic category. So far, the French archers have played only two world finals, in 1947 and 1953, beaten respectively by Denmark and Finland.
Two years ago, during the post-Olympic Worlds-2021 without some of the best archers in the world, the French team made up of Lisa Barbelin, Caroline Lopez and Mélanie Richard, won bronze. This year, for a qualifying edition for the 2024 Olympics, the best archers and archers on the planet are present in Berlin for the Worlds.
