Archery At The 1908 Summer Olympics - Women's Double National Round




Great Britain was the only nation to send female archers, ensuring that they swept this event. Queenie Newall , at 53 years of age, set a record for oldest female Olympic gold medallist that appears unlikely to be broken. Lottie Dod took second place, not quite matching her brother William Dod 's gold medal finish in the Men's York Round .
