Archers prepare for action

26 July 2012
The world's best archers will begin their bid for Olympic Games glory at Lord's Cricket Ground on Friday - just hours before the London 2012 Opening Ceremony takes place.All 128 archers - 64 men and 64 women - will shoot in a preliminary ranking round that determines seedings for the Individual and Team events.
The men's ranking round begins at 9am.
All archers had a chance to familiarise themselves with the venue on Wednesday, getting their only opportunity to shoot in the elimination range before the knockout matches get under way.
After his own practice session, Great Britain's Simon Terry said: 'We hope (being the Host Nation) brings us an advantage, but we're just going to keep our cool out there.'
