The Indoor Archery World Series, which will finish with its last stage and final in Las Vegas at The Vegas Shoot, had its third tournament in Rome, Italy on December 14-16.
Over 600 archers competed at the Roma Archery, the last major international of 2018.
The three-day tournament included compound, recurve, barebow and longbow competitions, and both junior and senior events for men and women.
Crispin Duenas and Kim Surin won the senior recurve titles; Alexis Ruiz and Braden Gellenthien took honors in the compound events.
All four archers have previously competed at The Vegas Shoot and Ruiz is the defending compound female champion. She also leads the Indoor Archery World Series having won back-to-back events in Macau and Rome.
After three stages, this is how the elite ranking for the Indoor Archery World Series stands. The top 16 after all five events qualify for the Indoor Archery World Series on Saturday night in Las Vegas.
