CORSIER-SUR-VEVEY, Switzerland – Mariya STADNIK (AZE) and Erica WIEBE (CAN) took over the top spots in the FILA World Rankings for women’s freestyle after convincing wins at the German Grand Prix.

Stadnyk’s triumph, which included a fall over 2012 world champion Jessica MacDONALD (CAN), was her fourth of the year and lifted her past 2013 world champion Eri TOSAKA (JPN).

Tosaka’s only “international” appearance this spring has been at the women’s World Cup meet in Tokyo, where she notched three wins including a 6-4 victory over last year’s 51kg world champion SUN Yanan (CHN).

Wiebe, meanwhile, followed up her win in Dormagen with another triumph in the Austrian Ladies Open in Gotzis for her fifth straight tourney triumph since taking a bronze medal at the NYAC invitational in November.

Although Wiebe struggled with two losses at the World Cup in March, while Adeline GRAY (USA) notched four wins to move to the top of the rankings, the Canadian’s wins over Ekaterina BUKINA (RUS) in Klippan and Vasilisa MARZALIUK (CAN) in Dormagen could not be ignored.

With the month of June given to continental junior championships and other age-group competitions, there was minimal change in the upper ranks of the other six weight categories.

Even with Tosaka’s slip to No.2 at 48kg, Saori YOSHIDA (JPN), Kanako MURATA (JPN) and Kaori ICHO (JPN) remain on top in the next three weight categories.

Stadnyk gives Azerbaijan two atop the rankings along with Yulia RATKEVICH (AZE) at 60kg.

European champion Anastasija GRIGORJEVA (LAT) remains No.1 at 63kg despite a loss in Dormagen and London 2012 gold medalist Natalya VOROBIEVA (RUS), currently on top at 69kg, has not competed since winning the European championships in early April.

The rankings are listed by the wrestler’s name, country code, the wrestler’s most notable or most recent result, and the wrestler’s position in the previous rankings.

48kg – World and Olympic Games silver medalist Mariya STADNYK (AZE) moves to the top of the rankings, ahead of 2013 world champion Eri TOSAKA (JPN), with her fourth tournament title of the year at the German Grand Prix for women.
