The Olympian was seeded third in the eight-archer field. She had a smooth run through the semifinals but probably the pressure of the gold medal match got to her against fourth-seed Li Jiaman from China. Dhiraj Bommadevara could not hold off the challenge from South Korea's Paris Olympics bronze medallist, Lee Woo Seok in the opening round and made an early exit. The five-member Indian contingent concluded the World Cup Final campaign with just one medal.
