Nanaig siya kina Dela Cruz at five-time SEAG champion Joann Tabañag sa Olympic round.

"I’m happy with my results this tournament. I’ve been working really hard these past couple of months and I’m glad that it paid off. There is, of course, still a lot of room for improvement and like every tournament, there are things I learned that I can use to work on getting better.

It's back to training for me to get ready for the next leg," ani Robles, ang unang Filipino gold medalist sa 2019 Indoor Archery World Series sa China.

Pinagharian ni Vietnam SEA Games mixed team silver medalist Paul Marton Dela Cruz ang men's division sa qualifying round. Tumapos sa 2nd place si Johann Olaño habang 3rd si Flor Matan.
