  1. A.Deepika Kumari, Ankita Bhakat and Bhajan Kaur
  2. B.Jyothi Surekha Vennam, Prithika Pradeep and Chikitha Taniparthi
  3. C.Jyothi Surekha Vennam, Deepika Kumari and Simranjeet Kaur
  4. D.Aditi Swami, Deepika Kumari and Ankita Bhakat

Correct answer

B. Jyothi Surekha Vennam, Prithika Pradeep and Chikitha Taniparthi

Explanation

The correct answer is Jyothi Surekha Vennam, Prithika Pradeep and Chikitha Taniparthi, the trio whose shooting won the women’s compound team gold at the Asian Games 2026 and equalled the World Record in the process. Option A names recurve archers, and recurve is a different division from compound, with a different bow and different scoring, so that team cannot win a compound event. Option C is the trap most likely to catch a hurried candidate, because it keeps the one famous name, Jyothi Surekha Vennam, and replaces her two team-mates with archers who were not in this team. Option D mixes divisions in the same way. The safest approach is to learn the three names as a set, since a question can drop any one of them and ask which archer does not belong to the gold-winning team.

That equipment is why compound scores run so high and so close together, and why a single arrow off the centre normally decides a match.
