Nicky Hunt content with facing Naomi Folkard in women's individual first round

Nicky Hunt insists that she is content with facing British teammate Naomi Folkard in the last 64 of the women's individual event.

Nicky Hunt has admitted that there are few positives in drawing a fellow British competitor in the opening round of the women's individual event.

Hunt and Naomi Folkard - two thirds of Team GB's women's team - have been drawn together in the last 64, but Hunt has insisted that she will not overthink the contest, which will take place on Friday morning.

The 30-year-old told reporters: "The only good thing about having a teammate in your first round is that it guarantees a GB person through to the last 32.

"Archery's not a sport where we're hitting each other so we won't be trying to miss each other's punches through the next 24 hours. It's just a case of just shooting your best and what happens, happens."

Hunt, Folkard and Amy Oliver suffered a dramatic 5-3 defeat to Georgia in the women's team event on Wednesday morning.
