Ana Luiza Sliatchicas Caetano (born 18 November 2002) is a Brazilian archer who competes in recurve events. She is also a published writer.

Early life

[edit]

Her first love was sailing which she practiced since she was 7 years old,[2] until she started archery in 2014, through a project to encourage the sport in her city of Maricá, Rio de Janeiro.[3]

Career

[edit]

She won bronze in the individual and gold in the women's team event at the 2022 South American Games.[4] She won a bronze medal at the 2022 Archery World Cup alongside Marcus D'Almeida in the recurve mixed team, beating 2022 Tokyo Olympic winning duo of An San and Kim Je-deok for bronze.[5]

She won gold in the mixed team with Marcus D'Almeida at the 2024 Pan American Archery Championships in Medellin in April 2024. She won bronze with the women’s mixed team at the same Championships.[6]

She was selected for the 2024 Paris Olympics to compete in the individual event as well as the mixed team with Marcus D'Almeida. After the individual ranking round, she ranked 19th, but progressed to the round of 16.[7][8]

Personal life

[edit]

In 2013, she published the book Bons Ventos: Diário de Aventuras Iradas about her experiences sailing,[2] in partnership with her brother João Pio, who was the illustrator of the work. Three years later, she released her second book Eureka.[9]
