Paris Grand Slam bronze medallist TASHIRO Miku (JPN) continued Japan’s hot streak as she beat Havana Grand Prix bronze medallist Martyna TRAJDOS (GER) to win the -63kg gold medal. TRAJDOS chalked up two shido penalties before TASHIRO seized control by scoring a waza-ari and there was no way back for the German.
In the first semi-final TRAJDOS conquered European bronze medallist Agata OZDOBA (POL) in a bout which was settled on shido penalties. OZDOBA was denied a final berth as she received three shido penalties while her opponent was punished with two. In the second semi-final TASHIRO sent world number three Anicka VAN EMDEN (NED) into the repechage as a solitary shido against the popular Dutchwoman was the difference.
The first bronze medal was won Madrid European Open bronze medallist Maelle DI CINTIO (FRA) who dismissed OZDOBA by scoring a waza-ari with a minute left to break the deadlock and had the composure to see out the remaining time. The second bronze medal went to VAN EMDEN who defeated Sofia European Open bronze medallist Ekaterina VALKOVA (RUS) by a yuko score from osaekomi-waza as the Russian slipped out after 14 seconds.
