Although the score was tied 0-0, she was clearly the dominant competitor having scored a point only losing it due to receiving two warnings (<em>kyong-go<\/em> in Korean).  Sergerie performed stunningly in the quarterfinals defeating Argentina&#8217;s Vanina Paola Sanchez Beron by a score of 3-0.  In the semifinals, Sergerie guarantees herself and Canada at least a silver medal by defeating Puerto Rico&#8217;s Asuncion Ocasio Rodriguez by a score of 2-0.  Puerto Rico&#8217;s Ocasio Rodriguez will compete for the bronze medal.  In the finals, Sergerie will fight against South Korea&#8217;s Hwang Kyungseon for the gold medal.  The gold medal match will be at 8 a.m. ET.<\/p>\n<p>In the men&#8217;s 80 kg, Sebastien Michaud defeats Angel Roman Martinez of Puerto Rico in the preliminary match by a score of 2-1 (won in sudden death overtime).  In the quarterfinals, Michaud lost to Azerbaijan&#8217;s Rashad Ahmadov by the Rule of Superiority as it was tied 0-0 after sudden death overtime.  Ahmadov scored one point but lost it due to receiving two <em>kyong-gos<\/em>.  Because Michaud did not score a point, Ahmadov was ruled the superior competitor.  Michaud would have moved to the repechage match only if Azerbaijan&#8217;s Ahmadov made it to the finals (gold medal match).  Unfortunately, Ahmadov lost 4-1 to Iran&#8217;s Hadi Saei.  The gold medal match for men&#8217;s 80 kg will be between Italy&#8217;s Mauro Sarmiento and Iran&#8217;s Saei at 8:15 a.m. ET.<\/p>\n<p>~~~C<\/p>\n<div name=\"googleone_share_1\" style=\"position:relative;z-index:5;float: right; margin-right: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 10px;\"><g:plusone size=\"medium\" count=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/www.brigidsflame.com\/feymorgaina\/blog\/?p=389\"><\/g:plusone><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In women&#8217;s 67 kg, Karine Sergerie wins her preliminary match over Australia&#8217;s Tina Morgan by the Rule of Superiority.
