Asian Champion Kirari Yamaguchi shines with gold in Tashkent
In the final for women U63kg of the Grand Slam in Tashkent, Kirari Yamaguchi (JPN) and Inbal Shemesh (ISR) came forward, each aware of the other’s skills and preferences. Early on, Shemesh put in a huge effort to pick up her opponent but Yamaguchi was ready for it and could avoid a bad situation. After that, a sort of stalemate was reached and both were penalised.
