Mirabai Chanu Wins Silver Medal In 49kg At World Weightlifting Championships
World Weightlifting Championships: Olympic medallist Indian weightlifter Mirabai Chanu clinched a silver medal at the World Championships in the 48kg category here. This is the third medal at the marquee event and second silver for the former world champion.
Mirabai, who returned to action after Paris 2024 by winning the 48kg gold at the Commonwealth Weightlifting Championships in August, produced a total lift of 199kg (84kg snatch + 115kg clean and jerk).
The 2017 world champion and 2022 silver-medallist had two failed attempts at 87kg. Even the first lift at 84kg looked a little uncomfortable for her. But she regained her rhythm in the clean and jerk, successfully executing all three attempts.
