The first final in the W-68kg drew Montenegro’s Anđela Berisaj against Korea’s Hyo Rim Hong. The opening round was a tense and tight affair with Berisaj narrowly edging Hong to take an early lead, 4-3. In the second round it was the turn of Hong to come out victorious as she won 5-2. The deciding, third round followed a similar pattern and was very close but it was Hong who came out on top, winning 7-5 to take gold.
In the M+78kg, Iran’s Abolfazl Abbasi Pouya took and early and commanding lead against Korea’s Kuk Hwan Lyu winning the first round 14-4.
