Taipei, May 1 (CNA) Taiwanese archers won a gold, two silver and a bronze medals in the

recurve women’s team, mixed team, and individual events, respectively, at the 2016 Archery World Cup in Shanghai Sunday.

Tan Ya-ting (譚雅婷) who competed in the women’s team, individual and mixed team competitions, won a total of three medals — a gold and two silvers, respectively.
