South Korea captured three compound archery gold medals at the Summer Universiade on Tuesday.

First, it was the men's team over Mexico 230-229 for the title at Gwangju International Archery Center. Then the mixed team followed suit by beating India 157-150. In the men's individual final between two South Koreans, Kim Jong-ho defeated Kim Tae-yoon 147-145 for his third gold medal of the day.

In the men's team competition, Kim Tae-yoon, Yang Young-ho and Kim Jong-ho rallied for the narrow victory, closing out with two straight 10s and watching the Mexicans slip up with 9s on their final three arrows.

Later in the day, Kim Jong-ho teamed up with Song Yun-soo for the mixed team gold medal over India's Kawalpreet Singh and Jyothi Surekha Vennam.

South Korea led 79-75 after two ends, as Song shot four consecutive 10s while Kim contributed three scores of 10. Song fired two more 10s in the third end as South Korea put the match out of reach at 118-112.

Song's streak of 10s ended with the first arrow in the fourth end, but she found the center of the target with her final shot.

Kim fired a pair of 10s in the final end to clinch the breezy victory.

In the men's individual final, both archers scored 29 in the first end, but Kim Jong-ho opened a two-point lead with a perfect 30 in the second end, while his opponent only mustered a 28.

Kim Jong-ho went up 88-85 after three ends. Kim Tae-yoon put up a perfect 30 in the fourth end but Kim Jong-ho countered with a perfect score himself, and still led by three at 118-115.

Kim Tae-yoon had another perfect score in the fifth end, but it was too little, too late, as Kim Jong-ho put up a 29 to secure a two-point victory and become South Korea's first triple gold medalist at this Universiade.

Song will go for her second gold medal on Tuesday in the women's individual final against Toja Cerne of Slovenia. It will be the last archery event of the day. (Yonhap)
