Bronze Medal For Christiane Legentil

Judokate Christiane Legentil won the bronze medal in the under 57 kg category. It thus allows Mauritius to collect its second medal in these Games after that won by Roilya Ranaivosoa in weightlifting.

In the quarter-finals Christiane Legentil beat the New Zealander Christie Qona and in the semi-finals she fell to the British Acelya Toprack. She thus won the bronze medal for reaching the semi-finals.

Silver medalist at the African championships in Oran, Algeria last May, Christiane Legentil had already raised her level in this category of less than 57 kg which was not hers.

So for these Commonwealth Games the rise in power of the judoka was not to be neglected and Christiane Legentil evolved with a lot of confidence to come and add a new medal to her prize list which already has four medals on the African level.
