Miguel Alvarino Garcia of Spain won the men's individual gold medal on the final day of Archery competition at the Baku 2015 Games on Monday.
After an afternoon of hard-fought contests that were affected by the strongest wind of the competition, Alvarino Garcia's 7-1 defeat of Sjef van den Berg of the Netherlands was relatively straightforward.
"There is so much emotion," he said. "It's my first individual medal. When the anthem started playing, I felt really Spanish and it was really overwhelmingly emotional."
Van den Berg, who was ranked 101 in the world before the competition, said: "I feel like I've done a good job and Garcia shot really, really well."
Anton Prilepov of Belarus won the bronze medal match, defeating Poland's Slawomir Naploszek 7-3.
