Japan and China Win Group Stage, Finals Set

Friday, December 1, 2017 - 20:25 By Eric Olanowski

CHEBOKSORY, Russia (December 1) – Japan and China both started the day on a hot streak, winning all eight of their opening round bouts at the Women's World Cup. Both teams ended with three victories, as they were undefeated on the opening day. This set up Saturday's 2017 Women’s World Cup Championship finals matchup between Japan and China. Japan was the winner of Group A and China was the winner of Group B. This will be their first championships meeting since 2007 and third overall. They are currently tied with one win apiece.

Japan, led by world champions Yui SUSAKI (JPN) and Mayu MUKAIDA (JPN) kicked the day off by defeating Sweden, 8-0. The highlight of the match came when A. HANAI (JPN) defeated No.5 E. NILSSON (SWE), 3-1. Hanai secured two step outs, and received her final point from Nilsson’s lost challenge.

In round two, the Japanese continued their winning ways by picking up five victories against host nation Russia.

Japan etched their way into their third straight Women’s World Cup finals by defeating the United States, 4-4 on criteria in round number three. It was Y. KAWAI'S (JPN) victory over 2017 world finalist and No.2 ranked Ali RAGAN (USA) that helped seal the dual. Ragan had a 2-0 lead in the second period when Kawai picked up a takedown and three leg laces, giving her the 8-1 victory.

It took China twenty matches until they saw their first defeat of the day, as they shut out Azerbaijan and Ukraine in the first two rounds. In round three, No.15 B. ALTANTSETSEG (MGL) was able to put Mongolia on the board by defeating Y. SUN (CHN), 7-2, but China eventually locked up their first finals spot since 2013 with a 5-3 victory.

Saturday’s third place bout features the United States and Mongolia, who were both 2-1 on the opening day of competition.

With their backs against the wall, the United States called on three-time world champion A. GRAY. In order for the USA to win the dual against Russia, Gray would have to pick up a fall over Russia’s A. PEREPELKINA. Gray picked up the 57-second fall, which gave the USA the 4-4 victory on criteria.

In addition, the United States picked up a 7-1 victory over Sweden. K. MIRACLE (USA) gave the United States their fifth straight win of the dual with a victory over No.5 E. Nilsson.

Mongolia finished the day with victories in Group B over Azerbaijan (6-2) and Ukraine (6-2). Mongolia's biggest win of the day came when No.15 B. Altansetseg put on a show and defeated No.8 I. CHYKHRADZE KHARIV (UKR), 9-1.

Finishing with 1-2 records, the fifth place bout will be wrestled between Russia and Ukraine.

Russia locked up their spot in the fifth place match with a 5-3 victory over Sweden. Ukraine’s lone victory over Azerbaijan came by way of 4-4 tie that was broken on classification points.

Thursday, November 6, 2025 - 11:27 By Vinay Siwach

LOUTRAKI, Greece (November 4) -- There was little competition for Ukraine at the age-group Grappling World Championships in Loutraki, Greece as it swept the U17 team titles in Grappling Gi and Grappling No-Gi in both the men's and women's categories.

In men's, Ukraine were way ahead as it finished with 140 points while Kazakhstan was second with 94 points in Grappling Gi. It scored 132 points in Grappling No-Gi while second placed Armenia managed only 78 points to finish at the second position.

Grappling Gi competition saw Roman SHOSTAK (UKR) beat Nursat BAIKASSOV (KAZ), 6-4, in the 50kg final to kick start the gold rush. Soon after, Zakhar DREMLIUHA (UKR) won 8-3 against Jakub BARDEN (POL) in the 54kg final to earn the second gold for Ukraine. At 63kg, Andrii PERZHAN (UKR) blanked Rafik ALEKSANYAN (ARM), 4-0, to win Ukraine's third gold medal.

In No-Gi competition, Shostak and Dremliuha doubled up as champions, beating Baikassov and Dawid BALTRUKANIS (POL) respectively in the 50kg and 54kg finals. The third gold medal for Ukraine came through a different grappler, Andrii SHTUNDER (UKR), who defeated Aleksei SKOREV (UWW) via submission after a 6-0 lead in the 76kg final.

Kuca also struck double gold after he defeated Hurhen MKRTCHIAN (UKR), 6-4, in a thrilling 85kg final. He remained the only gold medalist for Poland in both competitions.
