So can we see the results anywhere? Specifically the womens 49kg?

Tham did really well, 172 kg total, 19th overall - easily top of the D group, beat out the bulk of the C group, and took several B group scalps.

not many moves in the women's -49kg OQR

 

today's winner is surely  Rosegie Ramos, who finished the championship in 7th place but, above all, improved her record to 188kg (Total), which is good enough to climb the standings up to the 9th useful place

 

very unlucky effort instead by  Lin Chen Jing and  Fang Wan-Ling, who both improved themselves up to 186kg and 185kg respectively, which means that right now they are the 1st and 2nd below the qualification line 

 

unfortunately, also  Giulia Imperio couldn't improve her record, repeating once again her PB of 183kg and sitting right behind the 2 girls from  just outside the qualification mark (187kg at the moment) 

 

finally, no changes at the top of the standings, however all the 3 medallists from Today ( Jiang Huihua,  Hou Zhihui and  Jourdan Elizabeth De La Cruz) consolidated their positions with huge improvements of their records

I think in this sport if you are 11th or 12th (first or 2nd below the qual. zone) there is a very good chance you make the cut later. doping disqualifications are always possible and more than that this is a tough sport with lots of injuries. and some countries might pick up other weights because of max 3 quotas per gender .

nice and close (for Silver and Bronze) competition in the men's -61kg class

 

 Li Fabin dominated this event with 308kg in the Olympic Total (141kg in the snatch, 167 in C&J)

 

 Sergio Massidda won a wonderful silver with a Total of 302kg (137 + 165)  

 

bronze in the Olympic Total also went to  (sorry, I don't remember his name, as he lifted in Group B  )

 

snatch Gold went to  Li Fabin, meanwhile the C&J Gold went to  Hampton Miller Morris (who bombed out in the snatch, despite starting with the lowest weight in group A) 

 

but the most important outcome from Today's competition is that the OQR of this weight class has seen some dramatic changes (we'll analyze them later, when the full results are up, also because some of the top ranked athletes were in Group B)

Full results are up on WIKI

 

Good performance for  Ivan Dimov, which climbs him in the rankings. I think he could have done 3-4 kg more and be even in a better position.

I think he's been extremely lucky with his 160kg effort in C&J, given how strict were the judges Today

 

I still can't understand why  Mishvelidze's 2nd lift in snatch was called a "no lift", meanwhile I can't believe they gave the 3rd lift in C&J good to the Uzbek man (the only truly wrong call)

[phelps 7,675]

so, let's give a look to the men's -61kg OQR

 

 Li Fabin stays on top with 314kg, 6 kilos more than what he lifted today (I guess he's just keeping something in the tank for the Asian Games)

 

now  have 3 men in the top 5, since Chen Lijun's 310kg are also untouched from Today's event and Ding Hongjie hit 301kg as a new entry 

 

the best non-Chinese lifter in the ranking now is Today's silver medallist  Sergio Massidda with 302kg (nice improvement from last year's world), he's the 3rd overall in this class

 

 Erko Yuli Irawan is now 3rd in the 1-per-Nation ranking (5th overall, for what it counts) with 300kg

 

 Theerapong Silachai is still high in the ranking with 299kg, despite today only sustained a competitive training in group D

 

 Shota Mishvelidze climbed the OQR up to the 5th National representative with the new PB of 297kg, followed by  John Ceniza, who improved his record up to 296kg

 

 Ivan Dimov,  Teerapat Chomchuen broke in the top 10 with 293kg (unfortunately for him, the Thai man is still only the 2nd of his Nation), as did  Trinh Van Vinh with 292kg and  Aniq Kasdan,  Arley Calderon with 291

 

meanwhile,  Hampton Miller Morris (bombed out, stuck on the previous 290kg),  Jhon Jairo Serna Mendoza and  Aznil Bidin dropped out of the provisional qualifying positions

 

so, the new top 10 Nations in this class are:  

[phelps 7,675]

 Chen Lijun dominated the men's -67kg class with 333kg in the Olympic Total

 

 Eko Yuli Irawan finished in silver medal position despite lifting in Group B  with a Total of 321kg 

 

bronze went to  Gor Sahakyan with 312kg in Total

 

this isn't an Olympic weight class and Today's scores won't impact on the connected -73kg class, except for  Chen Lijun's 333kg, which would put him just in the last qualifying position (amazingly, he's the best Chinese lifter in that ranking so far ), dropping  Julio Ruben Mayora Perna below the qualification line
