Ukraine's Victor Ruban took advantage of a mistake by South Korea's Park Kyung-Mo to clinch the gold medal in the men's individual archery.

Park scored just an eight on his 11th arrow to leave the scores tied on 103-all with one shot left each.

Ruban scored a perfect 10 with his last arrow, while Park could only manage a nine - giving Ruban a 113-112 victory.

Russia's Bair Badenov took the bronze medal with a 115-110 win over top-seeded Juan Rene Serrano of Mexico.
