Silver medalist at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, Blessing Oborududu, lost to Russia’s Vusala Parfianovich in the women’s 68kg quarter-finals.

Also, Esther Kolawole lost to world number eight Grace Bullen of Norway in the quarter-finals of the women’s 62kg event.

However, both Oborududu and Kolawole will have a chance to qualify for the 2024 Olympic on Thursday in the repechage if their conquerors progress to the final of their respective events.
