The women's individual archery event at the 2008 Summer Olympics was part of the archery programme. It took place at the Olympic Green Archery Field. Ranking Round was on August 9, 2008. First and second elimination rounds took place on August 12, and eights, quarterfinal, semifinals and medals matches were on August 14. All archery was done at a range of 70 metres, with targets 1.22 metres in diameter.
Park Sung-Hyun tried to defend her Olympic Gold Medal won in Athens, along with British Alison Williamson, winner of the bronze medal in 2004.
64 archers from 37 countries qualified for the event at the Beijing Olympics. The 44th Outdoor Archery World championship, held in Leipzig, Germany, plus 5 continental qualification tournaments and a Final World Qualification Tournament selected 61 slots for the event, along with 3 Tripartite Commission Invitations.
The competition began with the ranking round. Each archer fired 72 arrows. This round was done entirely to seed the elimination brackets; all archers moved on to them. The elimination rounds used a single-elimination tournament, with fixed brackets based on the ranking round seeding. In each round of elimination, the two archers in each match fired 12 arrows; the archer with the higher score advanced to the next round while the other archer was eliminated. Unlike in previous years, in which the first three rounds used an 18-arrow match, the 12-arrow match was used throughout the 2008 tournament.
The Chinese archer Zhang Juanjuan defeated South Korean Park Sung-Hyun by a margin of 1 point, ending the Koreans' dominance in the women's individual archery event, which dated back to the 1984 Summer Olympics due to raucous Chinese crowds who visibly rattled the Korean by the conditions which made headlines in Korea for the unfair event organization. Instead of an umpire to control the situation the Beijing Olympic committee hired MCs to rile up the crowd.[1]
