JAPANESE pair Riki Nakaya and Nae Udaka continued their country’s dominance of the judo world championships in Chelyabinsk, Russia, by taking gold medals yesterday.
London Olympics silver-medalist Nakaya won the men’s under-73 kilogram division by beating North Korea’s shock finalist Hong Kuk Hyon. It was the 25-year-old’s second world title having also triumphed in Paris in 2011.
Udaka claimed her first world title with a golden score victory against now four-time world runner-up Telma Monteiro of Portugal in the women’s under-57kg category.
