TOKYO (Reuters) - There were no major upsets when the individual rounds of the Tokyo Olympics archery competition got underway on Tuesday after an early delay due to strong winds and rain.

The session was delayed by two and a half hours as a storm off Japan's east coast disrupted some events at the Games despite not battering the host city with devastating winds and rain as initially feared.
