French star #TeddyRiner’s quest for a record-tying third consecutive #Olympic gold medal ended in the quarterfinals with a narrow loss to Russian athlete Tamerlan Bashaev, who then lost a spectacularly well-fought semifinal to Krpálek. Riner still won his fourth Olympic medal. He claimed bronze with a victory over Hisayoshi Hasagawa, who became only the third of host Japan’s 14 Olympic #judokas not to win a medal. Bashaev also won a bronze. FRANCE 24’s Sports Editor Simon Harding reports.
