Elreen Ando Beat 2020 Medalist To Paris Olympic

Elreen Ando is on her way to redemption as she beats Tokyo 2020 gold medalist Hidilyn Diaz for the Paris Olympics berth, tallying a total of 228kg in the women's 59kg category.

Ando finishes the IWF World Cup in seventh place, while Diaz lifts a total of 222kg for 11th place.

For context, the 55kg category where Diaz won her Olympic gold medal in has been removed in Paris 2024, prompting her to move up to 59kg.
