The format for the individual competition was altered for the first time since the 1972 Summer Olympics.

This process was repeated until only 8 archers finished the fourth segment of the second round. The 1972 Summer Olympics, officially known as the Games of the XX Olympiad, were held in Munich, West Germany, from August 26 to September 11, 1972. ...

Men's individual semifinal

Eventual medallists are highlighted in the color of their medal. Each archer shot one quarter of a FITA round, with the 36 arrows split evenly between the distances of 90 metres, 70 metres, 50 metres, and 30 metres. The top 8 archers advanced to the final.


One archer from each of the three nations with multiple archers fell in this round, leaving Korea and the United States with two archers advancing as Finland joined the Soviet Union, the Netherlands, and Japan in qualifying one archer for the final. Pace, the defending gold medallist, missed the cut by one place. Yamamoto, the defending silver medallist, avoided that fate by shooting two points better than Pace to place eighth.

Women's individual quarterfinal

Eventual medallists are highlighted in the color of their medal. Each archer shot one quarter of the normal number of arrows in a FITA round. The 36 arrows were split evenly between the four distances of 70 metres, 60 metres, 50 metres, and 30 metres. The top 12 archers qualified for the semifinals.


The Soviet women had a relatively poor round, each of the three dropping at least six places in the standings. Boutouza fell all the way to last place, and Mountian was nearly eliminated as well. The Koreans, on the other hand, continued to shoot well, recapturing the top two spots.
