I believe he's the defending WC so not a stretch to think he'll make the final. I don't think so - I think Margelidon made it far enough that he will be in the repechage.

I thought you only got to the repechage if your opponent makes the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Judo - the QF losers from the same side as the bracket face each other and the winner will go to a bronze medal match. EDIT: So Margelidon will need to win 2 more matches for a medal.

This used to be the case, and is still the rule in taekwondo and wrestling, but that rule isn't used in judo anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klimkait basically just gave it away. This really sucks, but the ref did the right thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
