After two wins at the start, Tabea Mecklenburg had to admit defeat to Swede Tara Babulfath in the fight for the pool win. In the consolation round, however, the young Brandenburg native was able to motivate herself again and achieved the bronze medal with two wins by Yuliia Shtefaniak from the Ukraine and Alessandra Rocco (Italy).
A top ten athlete was waiting here with the Polish Wiktoria Slazok. In the regular fighting time, the athlete from the UJKC Potsdam managed to gain a superiority and deservedly won in the end. Tabea Mecklenburg wins the first medal for the German Judo Federation (DJB) on the first day of the competition
Luke Cabecana started the tournament with two Golden Score wins. After a defeat against Daviti Lomitashvili from Georgia, it was time for the consolation round. After an opening win, the young DJB athlete failed at the Portuguese Goncalo Lampreira. Again it went into the golden score, where after almost 44 seconds the decisive score went to the Portuguese. After a good performance he finished the tournament in 7th place.
