Recap
Zhao Jinhong (CHN) set a snatch world record at 88 kilograms on her second attempt after jumping from 80.

Recap
A particularly stern jury decision to overturn a good snatch by Fang Wan-Ling (TPE) due to slight movement in the elbow set her back enough to bump her out of medal contention in the total.
She was then injured on her second clean & jerk, collapsing on stage. Fang returned to try again, but collapsed, requiring assistance off the platform.
Teammate Lin Chen-Jing took a nasty spill as well, fumbling across the platform trying to save her final jerk at 104 after being struck dizzy by her second attempt.
