World Judo Masters bronze medallist French Audrey Tcheumeo won her country’s first gold medal at the Grand Slam by defeating Tyumen Grand Slam silver medallist Sato Ruika (JPN) in the U78kg final and the French team never looked back. Sato was penalised three times while Tcheumeo was penalised twice and that decided the contest with no scores registered from either judoka.
In the first semi-final contest the charismatic Audrey Tcheumeo powered past Olympic silver medallist Gemma Gibbons (GBR) with a thunderous harai-goshi earning ippon while in the second semi-final Sato defeated Anamari Velensek (SLO) by a waza-ari.
The first bronze medal was claimed by Ulaanbaatar Grand Prix bronze medallist Ogata Akari (JPN) who edged out Velensek on shido penalties with two against the latter while the Japanese fighter did not make any indiscretions. The second bronze medal contest was won by Tashkent Grand Prix silver medallist Madeleine Malonga (FRA) who beat Gibbons by ippon
