Noory then went on to lose in the quarterfinals – eliminating Sinclair from the tournament. On top of the morning session, Iran won 2 medals in the second session with a bronze at 48 kg and a gold at 65 kg. 

Team USA had an up-and-down Saturday with only Ladrion Lockett making the finals in the morning session.
