Archer Phi Vu practices before the competition
On the afternoon of July 29, archer Nguyen Hoang Phi Vu lost 1-7 to his opponent Tang Chih-chun of Chinese Taipei in the round of 32 of the men's single recurve event at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
In the match that took place at the Yumenoshima shooting range at 13:37 (Japan time), with the first shot, Tang scored 10 points, while Phi Vu scored 9 points.
In the second shot, the Chinese Taipei archer still had a 1 point advantage over Fei Yu's 8 points. In the final shot, Tang only scored 6 points, while Fei Yu earned 8 points. Therefore, the score after the first set was 1-1.
In the second round, although Tang did not play well in the third shot, scoring only 7 points, this archer still scored a total of 26 points, 2 points higher than Phi Vu. Therefore, Phi Vu lost this round and was behind 1-3.
In round 3, this was the round where Phi Vu was able to shoot first and played the best with a total score of 27. However, Tang was even better with a score of 29. Losing this round, Phi Vu was behind 1-5.
Phi Vu started the fourth quarter quite well when he scored 10 points on his first shot, while Tang only scored 9 points. However, Phi Vu's remaining 2 shots were not good, so he only scored 12 more points, while his opponent scored 17 points.
After Phi Vu's defeat, the Vietnamese sports delegation's hopes today are placed on swimmer Nguyen Thi Anh Vien, who will compete in the women's 800m freestyle at 7:00 p.m. (local time) at the Tokyo Aquatics Center.
However, her chances of winning a medal are slim because her opponents are all in good form, notably American swimmer Ledecky Kathleen, who holds both the world and Olympic records, with a time of 8 minutes 04 seconds 79.
