world judo tour by storm at just 17
years of age the sensational teenager is
already European champion and now has
two Grand Prix titles to her name here

champion Tanaka funa in the semi-final
could Korea's kang ujong stop her in the
final your commentator is former world
champion Neal Adams going forwards only
knows how to attack now they see an
aggie Oh can't quarter well she
shouldn't have climbed on her back there
that was a mistake from Billa did the
youngster just made a mistake was
looking for the gg
and the Korean continued took her onto a
shoulder well was it a score well she
gets a score for it and now Billa did
will have to come from behind this young
lady though has the ability
absolute brilliance in the previous
rounds billeted attacks now then is she
gonna go for the Sengoku she doesn't
want to stay there can that is not the
place to be and she's gonna turn that
she ties up the legs and she turns it
into the Sun yeah kita Tammy and that
was brilliant
absolutely Brody knew exactly what she
wanted and the Korean well she shouldn't
have stayed there and she paid the price
she really did this young lady here is
set for great things I think a future
Olympic champion and she's going to get
her medal from the president of the IGF
mr. Marius visa first Grand Slam win for
this young lady and she's just 17 years
of age at under 81 kilograms Japan were
also showing off their youth as Fujiwara
sataro
made it through to his first world judo
tour final after this tie atashi upon
against Canada's Antoine Valois 48
there he would face the dynamic Korean
lease young soo who had been on fire all
day throwing with a mix of devastating
techniques after taking out alpha modulo
of France
he then breezed past a tough Bulgarian
fighter v Valeo even off and after
another upon win against Musil of the
czech republic the showdown between Lee
and Fujiwara was set which of these big
throwers would come out on top well they
both know they've got to attack now -
she chose each who's it gonna be really
defensive leus defensive now Fujiwara in
with an uchi mata and that was brilliant
right on the edge there and you could
see how defensively is Fujiwara sets up
the right way in and he goes right the
way up the middle there beautifully
taken uchi mata leads with the Oh who
cheat then he hops the support leg
central and that's what he needed to do
there look at the control look at the
kuzushi on the hand and it was a
well-executed lucci matter and his first
ever Grand Slam gold the under 90
kilogram saw Japan pinned their hopes on
the young shoulders of Mukai shojiro who
faced the tough task of thwarting the
incredible georgian becker Coveney ash
Vili in the final at the end of last
year Divini asheville came back into
fall with an emphatic win at the world
masters in st. Petersburg to beat Vinnie
Ashe Willie Makai would need nerves of
steel

World Masters champion the everybody
there was there and now what's gonna
happen here Mook I just celebrated his
22nd birthday
just yesterday Oh dropsy lucky it's all
over look I was just coming for a
synergy he cannot believe it because he
was expecting a war here especially with
the Clooney as Billy and he just caught
him cold give idiots really injured
himself having a little bit on the way
over but it was a beautiful technique by
this 22 year old and that was amazing
first-ever major tournament and look at
this he's helping to finish Philly off
the mat he celebrates his birthday he
celebrates his first ever Grand Slam win
and then he helped his opponent off the
mat and that is our sport absolute

smile says it all
and there would be a Frenchman sharing
the podium with Micaiah after Excel
collage I produced the goods in his
bronze medal match with McCoy's
compatriot manga Sawa Kenta catching him
for an impressive submission victory few
sporting moments can compare with the
spine-tingling atmosphere after a French
victory inside this arena closure the
man of the hour as he realized every
French judo cos dreamer by standing
victorious in front of an adoring French
crowd at over 100 kilograms
Japan's men had another chance for gold
as Kagura kokoro took on kim saengmin of
korea but as an uneventful contest went
into golden score it seemed as though it
would be an anti-climax well at least to
where they need to attack they're gonna
have to do something because really oh
my goodness me Kagura changes direction
and well he'd been doing the C and Agee
all the way through but being taken back
as well but he just changed his
direction here and Kim of Korea goes
flat on his back so what a way to end
because that really was a great change
of direction I wish it had happened
earlier but it was well worth waiting
for he plugged away with the C energy
all the time and this time he gets the
arms working for the C energy but
changes the direction and Suzuki says
that's what had been waiting for Japan
were hopeful of gold in the female
division of under 70 kilograms as world
champion and world number 1 RI Chizuru
came up against Olympic bronze medalist
Sally Conway of Great Britain in the
final could the Brits cause an upset
into the last minute then and now
they're gonna have to attack and it's
alright alright trying to set up with
the uchi mata are I go Dean that was
close oh thank goodness me has she made
a mistake she's in the hole down here
Sally can't wait turns up and they
started inside the area and it's allowed
to carry on outside look at you chim
actor starting and she tries to drive
her over here but Sally Conway turns her
and she turned her into the hold-down
she gets the airborne and the gold medal
and Kate how he's the last British woman
to win back in 97 celebrates with her
and that was magnificent stuff from
Sally Conway in at number three on our
list of the top Yvonne's from Paris is
Canada's artal megalodon who took out
Sweden's Tommy Mathias with this
incredible shoulder for under 100
