Raz Hershko had entered a new dimension. The young Israeli had the upper hand in the heavyweight category. Her victories in Antalya and Paris have catapulted her into the noble part of the rankings and she was a clear favourite in Baku. However, the German Renee Lucht knew how to push her luck and defeated Hershko in the golden score period of the semi-final by osae-komi.
Lucht ratified the great day of the German delegation, fighting for gold against the Mongolian Adiyasuren Amarsaikhan. For the German judoka it was the opportunity to fly very high because it is up there where the gold is found.
Lucht ratified the great day of the German delegation, fighting for gold against the Mongolian Adiyasuren Amarsaikhan. For the German judoka it was the opportunity to fly very high because it is up there where the gold is found. It was all about power but eventually Lucht used fantastic technical judo to throw for ippon with a huge makikomi. She flew back home with her first grand slam gold medal as a boarding pass.
For Lucht, "It was a good competition. I really fought until the last second and I am very happy that my first grand slam medal is gold."
