American archer Jeff Fabry pulled off the performance of his life in the quarterfinals breaking both the world record and Paralympic record on Friday, September 12.

Fabry dominated his Italian opponent Luca Fabio Azzolini from the start and beat him with a margin of 113-97 points.

The American archer hit the bull's-eye five times (earning him 10 points each) and outscored his opponent in all four ends.

Fabry breached the earlier world record of 111 points which belonged to Finlander Osmo Kinnunen and the Paralympic record of 107 points which was held by Luca Fabio Azzolini.

"I feels good. It's pretty cool to break a record, but I just did what I came to do," Fabry said. "I'm not worried about a medal, I'm just here doing my job."

After breaking the record, Fabry said he messaged his wife to tell her the good news.

"Immediately (after winning) I telexed my wife, 'I won, love you.'"
