Park in pool for third time in London; male archers seek to end draught

LONDON -- There will be no rest for the weary swimmer Park Tae-hwan. He's scheduled to race in the heat for the men's 1,500-meter freestyle, his third event of the London Games.

He won silver medals in 200ｍ and 400ｍ freestyle races.

In men's archery, Im Dong-hyun, Oh Jin-hyek and Kim Bub-min will try to end South Korean Olympic draught in the men's individual event. They are competing a day after Ki Bo-bae captured the women's individual crown at Lord's Cricket Ground.

The following is the list of events for South Korean athletes on Friday. All times are local.
