BEIJING (AP) There is no individual gold for the dominant South Korean archers this year.
Ukraine's Viktor Ruban took advantage of a mistake by Park Kyung-mo to win 113-112 in the Olympic gold medal match in men's individual archery Friday.
Ruban's victory came a day after China's Zhang Juan Juan upset South Korea's Park Sung-hyun in the women's individual archery final. South Korea won both team events in Beijing.
