Japan s Abe siblings completed a golden judo double at the Tokyo Olympics on Sunday, with younger sister Uta winning the women s 52-kilogram division shortly before older brother Hifumi snared the men s 66-kg crown.
Having beaten France s Amandine Buchard for gold, 21-year-old Uta cheered for 23-year-old Hifumi from the edge of the mats, leaping jubilantly as he prevailed over Georgia s Vazha Margvelashvili in the final.
Their victories at Tokyo s historic Nippon Budokan took Japan s gold medal tally to five, including three from judo, and made them the first Japanese brother and sister to capture gold on the same day of Olympic competition.
