On the 29th, the 6th day of the competition, Naori Hamada, a 78-kilometer class female player, and Aaron Wolf, a 100-kilometer class male player, all won gold medals.

With this, I have lined up with eight gold medals at the Athens Olympic Games, which was the largest number ever at the Olympic Games.

In this tournament, Japanese judo has won medals every day for 6 days from the 24th to the 29th of the first day of the competition, and the total number of men and women is 10.


Of these, 5 gold medals for boys and 3 for girls totaled 8 gold medals.


This is the highest number ever at the 2004 Athens Games, which was won by Tadahiro Nomura, a 60-kilogram boy, and Ryoko Tani, a 48-kilometer girl.



On the 30th, Akira Sone will participate in a class of over 78 kg for women and Hisayoshi Harasawa will participate in a class of over 100 kg for men, and the gold medal is expected.

Five men's gold medals are the highest ever

The number of Japanese men's gold medals in judo is five, including one from Wolf on the 29th.


This is one more than the current seven classes, and is the highest ever, surpassing the four at the Los Angeles Games held in eight classes including weight indiscriminate.
