    The effort was the Philippines’ first two mints in the event following the bronze medal win of Jeaneth Hipolito on Tuesday night.

    The Zamboanga City native took the gold on her third and final attempt after previously lifting 63 and 65. After registering 78 and 80 on her first two lifts in the clean and jerk, Ramos failed in her attempt at 82, but still enough to produce a gold in the total.

    The silver in the total went to Oliwia Drzazga of Poland, who lifted 143 kilograms, followed by Najla Khoirunnisa of Indonesia, who won the bronze with a lift of 142 kilograms in the total.
