Los Angeles Olympic Games:  India's Jyothi Surekha Vennam, Aditi Gopichand Swami and Ojas Pravin Deotale will not be able to participate in the Los Angeles Olympic Games in 2028 after the International Olympic Committee (IOC) rejected a proposal to include compound archery in the Olympics programme.

World Archery had proposed the inclusion of compound archery along with recurve, which is currently part of the Olympic programme.

However, the IOC Executive Board rejected the proposal during its meeting in Mumbai on Friday as this will entail archery getting more athlete quotas and thus impact the overall budget of the Games.
