Clarisse Agbégnénou wins sixth world crown in the -63 kg category. The 30-year-old was absent from the last edition of the Worlds due to maternity leave.
She won by ippon in overtime against the Cuban Maylin Del Toro Carvajal. The two-time Tokyo Olympic champion had played only two competitions since her return from maternity leave in February. "She's really a great champion, if anyone doubts it, she made us Clarisse," said her coach Ludovic Delacotte.
