Ki Bo Bae becomes the women's archery Olympic champion after defeating Aida Roman in a final one-shot showdown.

South Korea have added another gold medal to their collection after Ki Bo Bae won the top honour in the women's individual archery final.

The Korean clinched the victory with an overall 6-2 scoreline following a tense one-shot showdown with Mexico's Aida Roman.

The duo were evenly matched throughout as Ki nabbed the first round 27-25, while Roman recovered well with a 29-26.

One shot was needed to separate the two and, adding to an already dramatic final, both competitors scored an eight but Ki's was closer to the centre, which edged her to victory.

Meanwhile, 18-year-old Mariana Avitia also got on the podium for Mexico after winning bronze earlier today.
