China’s Xian, Japan’s Masato defend Olympic judo titles

Defending lightweight judo champions Xian Dongmei of China and Uchishiba Masato of Japan won their second straight Olympic gold medals on Day 2 of the Beijing Games.

Xian did so on home turf in the 52-kilogram division on the women’s side, earning China’s first judo medal and the country’s fifth gold of the Games. She beat Korea’s An Kum-ae in the final with two koka, or 10-second holds.

Bronze medals on the women’s side were won by Algeria’s Soraya Haddad and Nakamura Misato of Japan. Haddad beat Kazakhstan’s Sholpan Kaliyeva in the first bronze medal final, and Misato beat Korea’s Kim Kyun-gok.

In the men’s 66-kg division, Masato beat Benjamin Darbalet of France in the gold medal final with an ippon, a throw that means instant victory.

One bronze medal went to Cuba’s Yordanis Arencibia, who also won bronze at the 2004 Games and is a three-time world championship bronze medallist.

Korea’s Pak Chol-min won the other bronze medal.

Canada’s Sasha Mehmedovic, 23, lost in the third round of the repechage to Russian Alim Gadanov.
