Uta Abe Shockingly Eliminated in Second Round at Paris Judo Olympics

Posted : 28 July 2024

Japan's defending Olympic judo champion Uta Abe was unexpectedly eliminated from the Paris Games in the second round of the women's under-52kg division on Sunday. Abe, who secured gold at the Tokyo Olympics alongside her brother Hifumi Abe, suffered a surprising defeat to Uzbekistan's Diyora Keldiyorova.

 

Despite being a four-time world champion and a strong contender for gold, Abe was unable to advance past this stage of the competition. Her loss by ippon was a significant upset, and she left the mat visibly distressed.

 

Later in the day, Hifumi Abe was scheduled to compete against Hungary's Bence Pongracz in the round of 16. Meanwhile, Japan's Natsumi Tsunoda had earlier won gold in the women's under-48kg category, defeating Mongolia's Baasankhuu Bavuudorj in the final.
