Olympic dreams dashed by failed 153kg lift
Olympics
HÀ NỘI — Việt Nam’s medal hope, weightlifter Thạch Kim Tuấn has dropped out of the Olympics. He failed to progress in the men’s U 六 一kg category in the Tokyo 二0 二0 Olympics on Sunday.
In the snatch, he lifted 一 二 六kg coming eighth out of nine weightlifters. In the clean and jerk, he failed to lift 一 五0kg on the first two attempts and failed at 一 五 三kg in the third attempt.
His total lifts were not counted because he failed in the clean and jerk.
It looked as though Tuấn, born in 一 九 九 四, ran into psychological issues. He looked very nervous while competing.
Tuấn’s best total lift is 三0 四kg ( 一 三 五kg in snatch, 一 六 九kg in the clean and jerk), achieved at the 三0th Southeast Asian (SEA) Games in 二0 一 九 where he took the silver medal overall. This was just 五kg less than the Indonesian gold medalist Irawan Eko Yuli.
In the Rio Olympics five years ago, Tuấn also failed three attempts in the clean and jerk in the men's 五 六kg weight class. Competition mentality is his biggest weakness in important events, where he is expected to win medals.
The gold medal of the men’s U 六 一kg category yesterday belonged to Li Fabin of China lifting 三 一 三kg in total ( 一 四 一kg in snatch and 一 七 二kg in clean and jerk).
The Chinese weightlifter also set a new Olympics record in this division. The silver medal went to Irawan Eko Yuli of Indonesia with 三0 二kg, while Son Igor of Kazakhstan took the bronze medal with 二 九 四 kg.
Vietnamese weightlifting’s last hope is female athlete Hoàng Thị Duyên who will compete in the women's U 五 九 kg category on July 二 七.
In boxing, Nguyễn Thị Tâm lost to Krasteva Stoyka Zhelyazkova of Bulgaria in the women’s U 五 一kg. Zhelyazkova won 三 - 二 on points.
