Mirabai misses bronze by a whisker

Hindustan Times  

New Delhi: Tokyo Olympics silver medallist Mirabai Chanu finished fourth at the Paris Games in the 49kg division in Paris on Wednesday. Chanu’s total lift of 199kgs was never going to be enough in a field where four lifters — besides Chanu — had listed the entry weight of 200kgs or more. USA’s Jourdan Delacruz, Thailand’s Surodchana Khambao, Romania’s Valentina Cambei, and China’s Hou Zhihui were always going to be tough to beat considering the Indian had only a solitary 200kg+ effort in this Olympics cycle — at the 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games where she had lifted 201kg for a gold medal. In the clean and jerk, having initially listed 107kg, Chanu added four more kilos to her weight having watched Cambei easily lift 106kg in her opening effort. Chanu and Khambao both raised the stakes to 113kgs, and the Thai’s clean lift propelled her to teh second spot, pushing the Indian to fourth place.
