Again those Birkenstocks as secret weapon for Anna Monta Olek
The final of the Grand Prix in Linz for women U78kg pitted Yuliia Kurchenko and Anna Monta Olek against each other, in a contest that promised to be high intensity. The intensity was high, that's for sure, but none of the finalists could score during normal time. They entered golden score, with Kurchenko having two shido to her name, while the German judoka had one. 1 minute and forty seconds later, Anna Monta Olek could finally apply her combination of cross-grip and o-uchi-gari for waza-ari and a third gold medal in a Grand Prix.
