they always don't show medal ceremony here , or it's just this weight 

[MHSN 3,660]

well Armenia is not alone in starting the competition with 1kg above the WR and failing miserably 3 times. North Korea just joined them with Kim Hyo-Sim

Since when does Mathlynn Sasser compete for the US? Last time I checked she competed for the Marshall Islands...

Yeah she broke many records at the Pacific Mini Games last year I suppose in Vanuatu... I think the Americans  BOUGHT her recently...

that last 137kg attempt by Wamalun of Thailand was completely useless. (not even in term of CJ medals) and didn't change anything for her. 1kg more could give her the silver medal in total instead of bronze. and that was too easy for her. she definitely could lift 1kg more.

 

3 gold and 3 WRs for China. except 45kg where all Standard Records remained (poor level) all other Standard Records had been broken so far for women's events.

It's weightlifting, of course they're former dopers. Weightlifting is a sport you watch for the cool show, not for the fair competition

I think the REALIZED she'd have more chances to improve in the US system than in the Marshall Islands system.

She probably lives in USA from years like most of Caribbean sprinters  

 

P.S. Please, don't say I didn't understand your irony again

Well we basically both meant it's only logical she would choose to represent USA instead of Marshall Islands
