MANILA, Philippines — Remon Misu overpowered Chow Hei Wood of Hong Kong, 3-0, in the repechage round to add another bronze medal to the Philippine campaign in the 2021 Asian Championships in Almaty, Kazakhstan yesterday.

Misu absorbed a 0-1 defeat at the hands of Iran’s Atousa Golshadnezhad, who went on to advance to the finals against Kazakhstan’s Assel Kanay in the Under-21 women’s -61kg division.

In the repechage, Misu took advantage of her second chance to complete a podium finish.

It was the country’s third bronze, with the first two coming from John Enrico Vasquez and Sakura Alforte in the men and women U21 individual kata events that took place the day before.
