The men's individual archery competition at the 2012 Olympic Games in London was held from 27 July to 3 August at Lord's Cricket Ground.^[1]

Oh Jin-Hyek of South Korea won the gold medal, followed by Takaharu Furukawa from Japan with silver and Dai Xiaoxiang, representing China, with the bronze.

Competition format

The competitors were ranked 1st to 64th based on their ranking round results and seeded into a head-to-head knockout bracket based on this ranking.^[2] The 2012 Olympics introduced a new format for the knockout rounds. Each head-to-head match was a best-of-five sets match where each competitor shot three arrows per set. Competitors received two points for winning the set and one point for a draw, with the first competitor to reach six points winning the match. The winner advanced to the next round while the loser was eliminated from the competition.

Schedule

All times are British Summer Time (UTC+1).

Records

72 arrow ranking round

World record	Im Dong-Hyun (KOR)	696	Antalya, Turkey	2 May 2012
Olympic record	Michele Frangilli (ITA)	684	Atlanta, United States	28 July 1996

NB: Im Dong-Hyun broke the world record at the 2004 Olympics with a score of 687. It was not recognized by the International Olympic Committee as an Olympic record because the ranking round took place on 12 August, before the 2004 opening ceremony. Im's 2012 ranking round score is recognized as an Olympic record, despite having been shot before the opening ceremony.^[3]
