oooooh SCANDAL

 

the Russian weightlifting federation (OTAP) had issued four year bans to Valeria Temnik, Roman Rednikin, Sergey Oreshnikov and Fatima Umakhanova

 

are they competing now in ashkabat ?

Never in my life heard of any of them.

Last place has a total that is 2kg lower than the snatch of the 1st place.....of group D.

@dcro Any word on what happened to the so wonderfully named Amar Music?

Sadly, it's impossible to find out right now.

Just say it.. with his total, he would have been second to last in ... Women's -45kg.

Won won  (the B group)

The 195kg CJ is a new WR by the way. With his total of 348kg he'd have placed/equalled 3rd at last year's world champs in 77kg (this is 73)...to add to how sad last year's world champs were in terms of level

Still not bad to be the best of your country at 15

Same kind of thing in the women's 59kg. Hoang of Vietnam got a total of 223 in the B group, which would have placed her 6th in the rather poor 63kg competition last year.
