The American had starred on the opening day of action by breaking a 15-year-old world record qualification score, en-route to securing the top seeding for the knock-out rounds.

He would justify the status by negotiating his way through the rounds, with a 6-2 win over Italy’s Massimiliano Mandia seeing Ellison reach the gold medal match.

Ellison would then triumph by the same scoreline against Italy’s Matteo Fissore to secure the World Cup triumph, with Mandia bouncing back from his semi-final loss to win the bronze medal match 6-2 against France’s Michael Sanna.

"I really can’t wait to get this bow out when I feel I am tournament ready," Ellison said.

"It’s so smooth, it’s so easy to shoot.

"This tournament has opened my eyes to a whole new world of possibilities."

Britain’s Bryony Pitman would earn her first major senior title by winning the women’s event, as the second seed overcame Mexico’s Aida Roman 6-4, having earlier trailed the London 2012 silver medallist 4-2.

Bronze was earned by Estonia’s Reena Parnat, following her 6-0 win against Britain’s Sarah Bettles.

World Archery champion Stephan Hansen won the men’s compound gold, with the Dane seeing off the challenge of Mike Schloesser.

The Dutchman nearly equalled his qualifying world record yesterday, but was forced to settle for a silver medal after a 148-147 loss.

Braden Gellenthien missed out on bronze, with the American falling to a 149-148 defeat to Hungary’s Viktor Orosz.

South Africa’s Danelle Wentzel triumphed in the women’s event as the top seed edged out Italy’s Marcella Tonioli 146-145.

Toja Ellison would complete the podium as the Slovenian won 145-144 against America’s Cassidy Cox in the bronze medal match.
