Also in January, world silver medalist ZHOU Feng (CHN) emerged the victor and the new No.1 at 69kg at the Rio 2016 test event, after Dorothy YEATS (CAN) defeated world champion Natalia VOROBIEVA (RUS) in the quarterfinals and subsequently fell to Zhou in the finals.

Other than Tosaka, the only other top-ranked wrestler in action in February was Oksana HERHEL (UKR). The world champion at 60kg tested the waters at 58kg at the Ukraine International and fell in the final, 8-5, to Natalya SINISHIN (AZE), who normally wrestles at 55kg.

And, while the No.1’s were going about their preparations off the mat, six of the eight second-ranked wrestlers were in action – most notably with Stadnyk winning in Ukraine, Sofia MATTSSON (SWE) dominating the Klippan Open, and Risako KAWAI (JPN) taking her second Asian championship title.

Along with Kawai, the top three women’s middleweights from Europe were busy doubling up on gold medals the last two months.

Former world champ Yulia TKACH (UKR) took Dan Kolov and Ukraine; Anastasija GRIGORIJEVA (LAT) won the Schultz Memorial and Klippan Open, while Maria MAMASHUK (BLR) ruled over Paris and the Medved Prizes.

48kg – Former world champion SUN Yanan (CHN) scrambled past top-ranked Eri TOSAKA (JPN) in the semifinals of the Asian championships to climb to No.2 behind Ukraine International winner Mariya STADNYK (AZE). Tosaka slips to the third position.
