At the Hyundai Archery World Cup season opener in Shanghai, Mexico’s Andrea Becerra had an outstanding performance, scoring 713 points in the 50-meter qualifying round. This achievement secured her a top seed position and was a significant accomplishment, considering her international debut in 2018.
Andrea expressed her pride in the strength of the Mexican team, highlighting their impressive level of performance and their prospects in the World Cup Final. The World Cup is set to take place in Tlaxcala for the third consecutive year, and Andrea is determined to secure her spot as a host nation invitee once again.
Despite consistently strong match results, she had never achieved a high qualifier status before this event. Her personal best scores have hovered around 700 points over the years. During the qualifying round in Shanghai, Andrea came close to breaking the world record but missed out by just one point due to a minor error on the third-to-last end. She noticed that some of her shots were just on the edge of the target, missing out on valuable points.
Andrea’s ultimate goal is to secure a place at the World Cup through her exceptional archery skills and dedication to the sport without any special invitations. She has worked hard towards this goal and is confident that with continued effort and improvement, she will be able to achieve it.
