It’s been an up and down few days for the US compound men in Beijing. After qualifying all four of their archers in the top 11 on Wednesday they all failed to reach the quarterfinals in the individual knockout competition on Thursday. Friday brought a chance to rebound in the team competition and Alex Wifler, Steve Anderson, and Reo Wilde were clearly the best team in advancing to the final against the #10 seed Iranians. Unfortunately things continue to flip flop for the US and there was a drop off on Saturday as they shot just 228 in the gold medal final and Iran was able to upset them by scoring a 229.

The US will look to claim gold in two other events on Sunday when Zach Garrett competes in the men’s recurve gold medal final and when Brady Ellison and Khatuna Lorig compete in the mixed team recurve gold medal final.
