Kayla is really inspirational as an athlete and as a person! She's overcome so much! I think she's my new favorite Judoka.

And then 4-years later, she would win gold in Rio, proclaiming she is still QUEEN OF THE MAT!!!

I knew her from college

Brilliant sportsmanship! Always nice to see competitors share the glory at the end and come out smiling, because when it all comes down to it everyone is lucky enough just to be there and compete, let alone win a medal, and Kayla and Gemma definitely deserve them.

i guess the semi final took every bit of Gemma's energy back then, just by looking at her face one can tell how exhausted she was. 4 previous matchs and one of her opponents was judo champ at that time and she overcame all :D . Her moment of "i love you mom" brough me tears, so overwhelmingly emotional :) . Such a beauty rarely seen :) .

This was a year ago and still seems like yesterday. My family and I were in the stands when Kayla won. We will never forget this and neither will she. Gemma put up a heck of a fight but that French girl wore her down.

She’s also an MMA fighter , no WAY

he should've given them time, it's only supposed to stop on the ground after 1) someone is pinned for a winning score in which case the match ends, or 2) there's no progression for like 5-10-ish seconds. Basically he isn't being a good ref because if he were, he'd allow the players to show that progress in the match could be made on the ground

What a career

The British girl made the mistake of always putting herself in a vulnerable position for the American's harai-goshi. And the American was the more positive fighter.

Legend beast osss!!!❤😊❤😊

Each time Kayla takes her back, I keep hoping she’ll sink the RNC.

What those who don’t understand Judo will say, is it’s boring and slow! Sloppy, and no technique. No, it’s quite the opposite, this is two high level Judo players maneuvering for position and constantly countering.
