Weightlifters from USA, Canada and Ecuador aim to keep up good work in PanAms

Sunday, 18 April 2021 The women s 64 kilograms contest at the Pan American Weightlifting Championships, which start in the Dominican Republic tomorrow, highlights the improved performance of the United States and Canada throughout Olympic qualifying. It also emphasises that the biggest losers at the delayed Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games are likely to be Colombia. When qualifying was team-based for the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, the US sent a team of four and Canada two, while Colombia had nine, the second largest contingent behind China. This time around the US is hoping for a maximum eight, while Canada is looking solid for four places according to Craig Walker, President of the Canadian Weightlifting Federation - and maybe more.

Japanese and American weightlifters can benefit from no North Korea at Olympics

Wednesday, 7 April 2021 North Korea’s decision not to compete at the delayed Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games will have a bigger effect in weightlifting than in any other sport, judged by past performance and the current qualifying rankings. Weightlifting is by some distance North Korea’s strongest sport at the Olympic Games. In the past three Games in Beijing, London and Rio de Janeiro, North Korean weightlifters have won five gold medals, four silvers and a bronze - one of the best records in the world. In the current Olympic rankings North Korea features prominently in six of women’s categories and three men’s.

IWF finally confirms Romania faces outright ban from Tokyo 2020 weightlifting

IWF finally confirms Romania faces outright ban from Tokyo 2020 weightlifting Tuesday, 2 February 2021 The prospect of Romania being banned outright from weightlifting at Tokyo 2020 has moved a step nearer after two anti-doping rule violations at the London 2012 Olympic Games were formally closed by the International Testing Agency (ITA). The news means that Romania’s fate is now in the hands of an independent panel which has already banned three nations outright from this year s re-arranged Olympic Games - Thailand, Egypt and Malaysia. Colombia and Vietnam, both of which have had three doping positives within the Olympic qualifying period, are also liable to suspension, though Colombia is appealing in the case of three athletes who say they ingested boldenone through tainted meat.
