Archery

Main article: Archery at the 2008 Summer Olympics

Ukraine's men's archery team took seventh place at the 2007 World Outdoor Target Championships, earning the nation a full complement of three qualification spots for the Olympic men's competitions. The women's team finished in tenth place, six points shy of qualifying as well. Nevertheless, two Ukrainian women (Tetyana Berezhna and Viktoriya Koval) did earn spots via individual qualification in that tournament.[1]

Ukraine has won a silver medal and two bronzes in previous Games, including the bronze medal in the men's team competition in 2004. Viktor Ruban, a member of that 2004 Men's team survived two tie-breaker shots in the semifinals, before beating a Korean opponent by one point in the final to claim the individual gold medal.[2]
