2016 Archery World Cup


The 2016 Archery World Cup is the eleventh edition of the Archery World Cup organised annually by the World Archery Federation. The World Cup finals will be held in Odense, Denmark on 24-25 September. The preliminary stage consisted of three legs instead of the usual four, to make room for the Olympic archery tournament. The first preliminary leg was in Shanghai, China from 26 April to 1 May, the second leg on 9-15 May in Medellin, Colombia and the final leg on 12-19 June in Antalya, Turkey. The Antalya leg was also the final Olympic qualification event.

The compound legs consisted of a 50 m qualification round of 72 arrows, followed by the compound round at 50 m on a 6-zone target face, using cumulative scoring for all individual, team and mixed competitions. The top seven individual performers (with no more than two from each country,) plus one host nation representative if not already qualified, proceeded to the finals; the top mixed team performer proceeded to face the host nation at the finals, which were the same competition format as the legs. The team competition was not competed at the finals.

The recurve legs consisted of a 1440 qualification round (formerly called a FITA round), followed by an 72 m Olympic set system. The top seven individual performers (with no more than two from each country), plus one host nation representative if not already qualified, proceeded to the finals; the top mixed team performer proceeded to face the host nation at the finals, which were the same competition format as the legs. The team competition was not competed at the finals.

The scores awarded in the four stages were as follows:
