With that, we come to the end of our coverage of the Women's 53kg weightlifting event, as Sanjita Chanu clinches the second gold medal for India. Weightlifting has been the best sport for the country so far, with all three of its medals, 2 golds (Mirabai and Sanjit Chanu) and 1 silver (Gururaja) coming from the sport. ' That's all from us here for this event, but do stay tuned to Sportskeeda for more updates from the Commonwealth Games.
Sanjita Chanu is yet to start... that's because she has set a 103kg weight for her opening lift in the Clean & Jerk. So all the other lower weights will have to be completed first...
Akua failed the 63 kg first attempt, but her coaches pumped her upto 68 kg in the second. She did manage to make the lift, but her elbows were not in proper position, which is why she did not get a decision from the judges.
Fatima Yakubu comes in for her 74kg attempt, but the technical referee makes her change her number from the left to the right thigh, which takes a lot of time off her clock. In the end, she runs out of time, but makes the lift anyway. Fatima does not look happy with the referees here.
