Svetlana Tsarukaeva wins the Snatch with 112kg. 5kg below her own WR. She camped in the bottom position for what seemed like an eternity.
She didn’t let her missed 2nd (111kg) irritate her and goes into the Clean & Jerk with a 2kg lead over Maiya Maneza.
Maiya Maneza opened with an OR Clean & Jerk. Missed 2 World Record attempts at 144kg on the 2nd and 3rd.
