Christos Misos wins gold at Hyundai World Archery Para Series in Ahmedabad

Cypriot archer Christos Misos secured the gold medal in the VI1 category for athletes with visual impairments at the Ahmedabad 2026 Hyundai World Archery Para Series, held at the Sabarmati Riverfront in India. As the current world number one, Misos dominated the competition from the start, placing first in the ranking round with 451 points.

Throughout the tournament, Misos faced intense pressure while competing against a strong field of local Indian archers, including Yugal Garg, Pawan Kumar, and Tanvi Ingale. The athletes performed under challenging conditions characterized by extreme heat, high humidity, and shifting winds. The event received significant media attention, with coverage provided by major Indian networks such as DD News.

Christos Misos lost his vision in 2014 and has since established himself as a world-class competitor. His victory in Ahmedabad serves as a testament to his continued dominance in the sport, as he successfully navigated the technical and environmental challenges posed by the venue to maintain his top global ranking.
