A huge achievement for Lee Kochman at the Turkish Grand Slam in judo.
The judoka who competed in the weight category up to 90 kg picked up the bronze medal and won his medal for the first time in a Grand Slam tournament.
Kochman started his way with an iPhone victory over the Canadian Moab Al-Nahas, continued with an iPhone victory over Asilan Shagitbak from Kazakhstan but was defeated in the quarterfinals by Ostoprion from Tajikistan.
Following the loss, Nesher went to the consolation house, where he was given a technical victory due to the refusal of his opponent from Algeria to face him. In the battle for the bronze, Kochman competed against Michael Zagenk from Turkey and won thanks to Vasari.
