Her build-up to the Asian Games was affected by a bout of fever but India's star recurve archer, Deepika Kumari, is now getting ready to erase the bitter memories of the 2014 Incheon edition, in Jakarta.
They returned empty-handed from the Korean city four years ago.
Down with fever for five days, the Commonwealth Games twin gold medallist's departure was delayed, with the archery contingent leaving on August 14.
"There's still weakness and I'm on multi-vitamins. But I'm confident of a good show," Deepika told PTI from New Delhi, ahead of her departure for the August 18 to September 2 extravaganza.
The fever meant that her practice was hampered but Deepika is buoyed by a World Cup gold medal win in Salt Lake City in June this year -- her first individual World Cup gold since 2012.
"I'm beginning to find my rhythm and it has really boosted my confidence for the Asian Games," the former world number one said.
"It's difficult to predict the number of medals but I can say that we would do better than Incheon and return with medals this time."
"We have been doing well in the mixed pair events. It's about putting our best together on the given day."
"It's not that we lack talented archers. But we have to give them some time."
