The second day of the IWF Junior World Championships ended with the women’s 49kg bodyweight category session, where Chinese lifter, ZHAO Jinhong earned all three gold medals. In the Snatch, she produced the same result as silver medallist AISHA Windy Cantika (INA), 81kg, but as hers was the first successful lift, she got the gold.

In the Clean and Jerk, USA athlete REICHARD Hayley worked her way up to the third place in this lift and overall with a 98kg lift, rounding her Total result to 172kg.
