In a stunning performance at the 2025 Archery Asian Cup, Chen Pin-An, a 15-year-old archer, made a remarkable impact by shooting three consecutive 10-point arrows, securing a bronze medal.

On the 20th, during the bronze medal match for the men's recurve bow at the 2025 Archery Asian Cup in Singapore, 15-year-old high school student Chen Pin-An intimidated his opponent by shooting three 10-point arrows in the first round, ultimately defeating Japanese archer Urita Yui with a score of 6:2. This victory marked his first international medal and made him the youngest medalist from Chinese Taipei in recent years.

Chen Pin-An shocked everyone with a strong start by shooting three consecutive 10-point arrows.

Ranked 22nd in the qualifying rounds and missing out on the team event, Chen Pin-An seized the opportunity in the individual competition, becoming the only archer from Chinese Taipei to reach the medal match in both recurve and compound bow categories.

This was Chen Pin-An's first medal match in an international competition. Although he felt a bit nervous during the pre-match training, his confidence soared after shooting three consecutive 10-point arrows in the first round, leading 30:28. After Urita Yui responded with a score of 28:27 in the second round, coach Guo Zhenwei began giving him crucial advice on what to focus on. Chen Pin-An lived up to expectations, winning again with scores of 29:26 and 28:27, beautifully clinching the bronze medal.

In recent years, few Taiwanese male archers have managed to win medals in individual events at international competitions. Now, 15-year-old Chen Pin-An has become the youngest medalist in recent years, raising hopes for his future development. The Chinese Taipei team sent promising local talents to the Asian Cup, with Yang Kai-Han, Lin Yu-Yang, and Liu Tai-Yan winning the bronze medal in the men's recurve bow team event, along with Chen Pin-An's individual bronze, concluding the tournament with two bronze medals.
