Jil Grete Walter (born 9 July 2001)[1] is a Samoan archer who has represented Samoa at the Pacific Games and Youth Olympic Games. She is the daughter of Samoan archer Mua'ausa Walter.[2]
Walter started competing in archery at the age of nine.[3]
She represented Samoa at the 2017 Pacific Mini Games in Port Vila, Vanuatu, winning silver in both the women's individual recurve and mixed team recurve.[2]
She competed in the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics in Buenos Aires, Argentina, but did not advance.[4]
At the 2019 Pacific Games in Apia she won gold in the women's recurve,[1][3][5] silver in the women's recurve matchplay, and gold (along with her father Mua'ausa Walter) in the mixed team matchplay.[6][7] Following the competition she gave one of her gold medals to Samoan Prime Minister Tuila'epa Sa'ilele Malielegaoi after he withdrew from the mixed doubles compound category to allow a younger team member to compete.[8]
