JAKARTA - Indonesian women's archery athlete Diananda Choirunisa revealed a series of preparations that she played ahead of the 2023 World Archery Championship which took place in Berlin, Germany, as well as ticket hunting for the 2024 Paris Olympics.

One of them is he and the team who are currently conducting simulations of the race until centralized training in the Netherlands with the national archery team of the country.

"We are currently training in the Netherlands, and taking part in training with the Dutch national team. Many trials, we are trying to finalize the preparations for the match and mentally heading to Berlin later," Nisa said in a brief online interview session with the Indonesian Olympic Committee (KOI/NOC Indonesia), Wednesday as quoted by Antara.

Furthermore, Nisa assessed that the competition map for this year until the ticket fight for the 2024 Paris Olympics was evenly distributed, so the competition became even more fierce. However, the toughest competing countries so far still come from Asia, including South Korea, China, and Taiwan.

For this reason, Nisa admits that she tries to straighten out her way of thinking and focus on every game and tournament, considering that the 2024 Paris Olympics are only one year away.

"Now I'm trying not to look at (competitors) from where. Even though he's from South Korea, we're also training well, just as well. So I feel more confident against anyone," said Nisa.

In addition, the Surabaya-born athlete also made various physical and mental preparations to face the World Championships in Berlin from July 31 to August 6.

Besides that preparation, I also do a lot of meditation, which turns out to have a really good effect. There are times when I have to fight strong countries, and meditation makes confidence appear," said Nisa.
