North Korea’s Moon Hyun-kyung returns her ticket, notifying that she can compete after the opening of the competition.
Lee Han-bit (30, Wanju County Office), a female wrestler who dramatically qualified for the 2024 Paris Olympics after a North Korean athlete withdrew from the competition, suffered a crushing defeat in her first match. On the
9th (Korean time), Lee Han-bit lost 0-3 to Luis Nimes (Germany), ranked 6th in the World Wrestling Federation (UWW) world rankings, in the round of 16 of the women’s freestyle 62kg class wrestling competition held at the Champ de Mars Arena in Paris, France. Lee
Han-bit, who suffered a crushing defeat in her first match, is aiming for the repechage match. If Nimes makes it to the finals, she can participate in the repechage match.
After 3 minutes and 10 seconds, Lee Han-bit, who was hit by an opponent’s technique and gave up 2 points first, held on well, but lost after giving up an additional point with 1 minute and 25 seconds left.
Lee Han-bit had initially lost in the semifinals of the Paris Olympic Asian Quota Tournament held in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan in April, and failed to secure the Olympic berth of 2 spots for each weight class. Moon
Hyun-kyung of North Korea and Pureudorjing Orkhon of Mongolia, who had advanced to the finals in that tournament, secured the berths.
However, when Moon Hyun-kyung withdrew from the tournament, the berth went to Lee Han-bit. During this process, there was some confusion when the Korea Wrestling Association announced that it was due to Orkhon’s doping. Lee Han-bit, who received notification from UWW on July 31, the day after the tournament opened, arrived in Paris on the 5th to prepare for the tournament. 카지노사이트
