Teo was incredibly accurate in the second half of the competition and worked her way up the field to finally get the better of India's Malaika Goel and Dorothy Ludwig of Canada.

Wales's Coral Kennerley was in the running in the final for a while, before being eliminated in sixth as the only home nations qualifier.

Ludwig's sister Lynda Kiejko also dropped just short of the medals, finishing fifth overall.
