3rd medal for lifter Mirabai at World Championships
The Morning Standard
|October 04, 2025
STAR India weightlifter Mirabai Chanu won a silver medal at the IWF World Championships in the 48kg weight category in Forde, Norway on Thursday.
The medal was her third at the prestigious event. She had earlier clinched a gold medal in the 2017 edition in the 48kg and finished second competing in 49kg in the 2022 Worlds to bag silver.
The Tokyo Olympics silver medallist had to switch to 48kg from 49kg after the International Weightlifting Federation revised the weight categories for the 2028 Los Angeles Games earlier this year. The Manipuri lifter, who competed in 49kg from January 2019 to the 2024 Paris Olympics, first took part in an international event after changing the category at the Commonwealth Championships held in Ahmedabad in August this year and won the gold.
On the day, Mirabai could clear just one attempt in the snatch section lifting 84kg. The remaining two attempts of 87kg could not be completed by her.
