Israeli archer Mikaella Moshe is knocked out of the individual competition at the 2024 Paris Olympics after losing 1-7 to Romania’s Madalina Amăistroaie following four sets in the first elimination round in the women’s event.

“It’s disappointing. I think I handled it okay,” Moshe tells the Sport5 broadcaster, noting that she is new to the international archery scene, having only picked up the sport two years ago after years of training as a rhythmic gymnast. “That’s also a factor.”

Tomorrow, Israeli archer Roy Dror will take his own shot at advancing in the men’s event, and Moshe and Dror will compete together in the mixed team event on Friday.
