MANILA, Philippines — The Philippines continued to miss out on striking gold and have settled for four silver medals for now in the Asian Weightlifting Championships in Jiangshan, China.
Five of those came from Rosegie Ramos and Fernando Agad, Jr.
Ramos, a 21-year-old World Championship bronze winner, raked in her share in the women’s 49-kilogram class in the lift (90kg), clean and jerk (107kg) and total lift (197kg) over the weekend.
Thai Thanyathon Sukcharoen reigned supreme in the section with 200kg total lift.
Agad, for his part, snatched silver in clean and jerk (140kg) in the men’s 55kg division topped by a mighty Chinese in Wang Weidong, who had a 145kg lift. Wang later pocketed another mint in total with 265kg.
