The Netherlands' Steve Wijler shot a perfect four sets to beat reigning indoor World Series champion Florian Unruh for the recurve men’s / senior title.
Lisa Barbelin, Mike Schloesser and Erika Damsbo also won in their respective categories.
Thirty-one archers were invited to compete at the exhibition competition in Lausanne. Invitations were based both on the results of the first remote stage of the indoor circuit and the archers’ position in the open ranking.
The Lausanne Invitational coincided with the second remote stage of the 2021 Indoor Archery World Series, where more than 5000 archers worldwide registered to participate.
Initial results for the remote event are expected on Tuesday, with results finalised two weeks after the competition, following checks of the results lists, target faces and scorecards submitted as evidence.
The third stage of the Indoor Archery World Series is scheduled for 15-17 January 2021.
