Zolnir claims women's under-63kg judo gold



LONDON  - Urska Zolnir won Slovenia's first ever Olympic title in judo as she beat China's Xu Lili in the women's under-63kg final on Tuesday. She scored a decisive waza-ari half point early in the bout with a dropping shoulder throw that even looked worthy of an ippon, a technical knockout, which would have ended the fight there and then. World number one Yoshie Ueno won Japan's second women's medal of the Games with a narrow win over Mongolia's Munkhzaya Tsedevsuren by a penalty for bronze. World champion Gevrise Emane of France joined her on the podium as she beat South Korean Joung Da-Woon for the other bronze medal.
