The Cuban recurve bow teams secured this Friday their participation in the tournament of the Panamerican Games de Santiago 2023, by winning the qualifying tournament developed as part of the Copa Merengue de Arquería program, in Dominican Republic.

The female cast, made up of Maydenia Sarduy, Yailín Paredes and Liduveinys Sierra, opened with victories over the Dominican Republic (6-0) and El Salvador (5-3) to advance to the match for first place. That finalist status earned him the ticket to the continental event, according to a note published by the sports portal Jit.

However, the representatives of the island closed with the best possible performance and secured first place after defeating the Venezuelan squad 5-3.

In the men’s match, Hugo Franco and the less experienced Juan José Santiesteban and Javier Vega faced the most tense of duels in the semifinal against the Argentines, who won 5-4 by tiebreak date.

In the final, without the pressure of the previous fight, the Cubans dominated the boys from Guatemala with a comfortable 6-2, adds the report.

According to Jit, shortly before the qualifying segment there were definitions in the team event of the Merengue Cup, and the best thing for Cuba was the men’s silver medal, after losing 3-5 in the final against Chile.

More discreet was the performance of the women, who did not make it to the quarterfinals after falling by a 0-6 sweep against the representatives of Guatemala.

The Merengue Cup will lower its curtains this Saturday with the definition of the individual medals. In the women’s fair Maydenia will seek gold, while among the men Hugo will be one of the protagonists of the fight for the bronze medal.
