Sarah Hubbard\u00a0has broken the double 50-metre round barebow world record, shooting 1282 out of a possible 1440 at the NCB Double 720 registered tournament in Knutsford, United Kingdom, on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hubbard added five points to the previous world record of 1277, set by Italy\u2019s Giulia Mantilli in 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTo walk away with the double was just incredible. Just an absolutely brilliant day,\u201d said Hubbard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is Hubbard\u2019s third world record in as many months, after breaking the single 50-metre round world record in May before improving it again in June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt was a really tough day, really draining weather-wise with the heat and staying focused,\u201d she said. \u201cThe focus I had every time I shot was intense, but it needed to be to keep on track and shoot those good ends.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hubbard deliberately avoided adding up her scores during the final stages of the round to keep her attention on each shot rather than the record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t want to walk into that last end thinking, \u2018Right, I need a 54,\u2019\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMy next goal is obviously to push the scores even higher. It\u2019s a bit more relaxing because you\u2019re not trying to get something you haven\u2019t got!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
