Glasgow Commonwealth Games: India’s Ishroop Narang suffered a heartbreaking defeat in the women’s -78kg bronze medal contest at the Commonwealth Games 2026, losing to Canada’s C Godbout in a closely-fought bout that was decided in Golden Score on Sunday.
After regulation time failed to separate the two judokas, the contest extended into Golden Score, where Godbout secured a decisive Yuko at the 6:19 mark to clinch the bronze medal.
The bout remained a tactical affair throughout, with neither athlete able to register a score during regulation. Both judokas were penalised during the contest, but it was the Canadian who capitalised on the first scoring opportunity in extra time to seal victory.
