Yoana Georigeva, a newcomer to the Olympics, finished 7th in the third 500 m. kayak single semifinals. This means she will not be advancing to the finals in the event. The 22-year old Bulgarian contestant will not be taking part in Final C. either, in which the contestants who place 5th and 6th take part.
Bilyana Dudova failed to advance to the crucial match for the bronze in 62 kg. wrestling. She lost in the first round of the repechages to Purevdorjiin Orkhon, Mongolia by 1-3. During the match, Bilyana Dudova was hit in the head by her opponent, and doctors had to be called in twice to stop her nosebleeds.
Bulgaria’s other wrestling contestant Yuliana Yaneva also lost her match in the 76 kg. category – at the 1/8 finals she lost by 1-7 to Milaimys Marin Potrille, Cuba. Yuliana Yaneva will advance to the repechages for the bronze if her opponent qualifies for the final.
