British archers Simon Terry and Chris White both had top-three finishes in the qualification rounds of the World Cup archery event in Dover. But they, and the rest of the field, were overshadowed by Chinese recurve archer Juan Juan Zhang.
She shot the highest women's score ever recorded in the UK, and the second highest of the year in any FITA event.
The 2006 World Cup champion topped the standings with an remarkable aggregate score of 1,372 out of a possible 1,440.
The other stand-out performance of day one came from 21-year-old American compound archer Braden Gellenthien.
His four-round total passed the magical 1400 mark, finishing with an outstanding 1404 points out of 1440.
At the end of the Dover tournament - the fourth and final qualifying leg of the FITA World Cup - the top four archers in the four divisions go through to the World Cup Grand Final.
This year's finale takes place in Dubai in November. Naomi Folkard and Alan Wills are the only two British archers still in contention.
