LDN 2012: First two world records broken at Games

Thank you to BBC Sport for the post and photo. As always good news has to balanced with bad within the Media. God forbid we just have good news, that's just not healthy. Whoops sorry about that, I feel better now it's out.

London 2012 has seen its first world records broken as the South Korean archery team set two landmarks at Lord's.

Im Dong-hyun, who is blind in one eye, set an individual record in Friday's ranking round.

In the team event, Dong-hyun, Kim Bubmin and Oh Jin-hyek set a new landmark.

South Korea's archery team is regarded as the best in the world and has won 15 gold medals since 1984.

Dong-hyun, who won team golds at the past two Games, broke his own 72-arrow mark of 696 by three points.

Then, alongside Kim Bubmin and Oh Jin-hyek, he helped score a 216-arrow total of 2,087, passing the world record by 18 points.

Lord's played host to the men's individual ranking round on Friday morning and will hold the men's team gold medal match on Saturday.

South Korea's men are reigning world champions and have taken four of the six Olympic titles since the sport was added to the Games in 1988.

Spectators trying to get in to watch the archery were turned away amid confusion over ticketing.

The London 2012 website advertised the event's preliminary rounds as "unticketed", which some members of the public interpreted as open to the public.

But Olympic organiser Locog said it had not advertised or sold tickets for the ranking event and had always made it clear preliminary rounds were not open to spectators.
