Teenager Bhajan Kaur sealed a top-10 finish in the recurve women's qualification round to brighten an otherwise lacklustre show by her compatriots in the Archery World Cup Stage 3.

On a day when Koreans led the show on expected lines, the 17-year-old in her debut World Cup season put up a spirited show to score 668 points for a ninth-place finish in the qualifiers on Wednesday.
