Finland at The 1984 Summer Olympics - Archery

Archery

Defending gold medallist Tomi Poikolainen bettered his performance of four years earlier by one point, but with the return of the United States and Japan, Poikolainen's score was no longer sufficient to earn a medal and he fell to fifth place. Much the same fate befell Päivi Meriluoto, who fell two places even though she shot 60 points better than she had in 1980.

Kyösti Laasonen, in his fourth Olympic archery competition, took 28th place.

Women's Individual Competition:

  • Päivi Meriluoto — 2509 points (→ 5th place)
  • Ama Rantal — 2460 points (→ 15th place)

Men's Individual Competition:

  • Tomi Poikolainen — 2538 points (→ 5th place)
  • Kyösti Laasonen — 2443 points (→ 28th place)
