Newly crowned women's compound world champion Aditi Gopichand Swami is set to lead India's delegation at the fourth Archery World Cup stage which is serving as a Paris 2024 Olympic Games test event.

India is due to be represented by 16 athletes at the competition scheduled to run from tomorrow until Sunday (August 20).

A total of 10 gold medals are set to be won in both compound and recurve tournaments, although only the latter will be contested at Paris 2024.

The test is due to take place in a temporary area at Les Invalides prior to the complex's Olympic hosting next year from July 25 to August 4.

India are currently third in the Archery World Cup medals table with five golds as they sit behind the United States by virtue of two fewer silvers.

South Korea meanwhile lead on eight wins.

Olympian Atanu Das returns to the Indian squad after missing the third stage in Medellín and World Championships in Berlin.

Lim Si-hyeon is looking for a second straight gold in the women's individual recurve after triumphing in the Colombian leg as well as in Shanghai.

She is also part of the women's team line-up that is on course for a hat-trick, alongside triple Olympic gold medallist An San and Kang Chae-young.

The trio achieved a podium sweep in the individual event in Shaghai but will do well to repeat that with the likes of British breakthrough star Penny Healey set to disrupt their domination. 

South Korea's men's team could also end the season on a high with a third straight win if Kim Je-deok, Kim Woo-jin, and Lee Woo-seok prevail.

This is the 17th season of the Archery World Cup which has been held annually since 2006, except in 2020 when it was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
