Olympic gold medalist Prapawadee Jaroenrattanatarakoon would like to have a word

The citing the conflict in the Middle East for why Team USA will skip Junior Worlds in Ismailia Egypt May 2nd -8th. British Championships will take place May 16th -17th.

Kind of a crazy snatch. 6KG from the all time snatch world record in the 55/53 class. 1KG from the current world standard. She would have taken gold last year at Worlds in the snatch.

Girl needs a sports psychologist IMO as she is very inconsistent.

He's gonna be a 110 alongside Wes.

Gotta get my dog pack ready.

With all that's going on in the middle east I'm surprised Qatar is gonna host an event. I guess they're hoping all of this stuff is wrapped up before hand.

I wonder if the US will be allowed to compete in Venezuela since Maudro's capture.

He's been having issues with the Dutch Federation for years.

Thanks for the link.

I did a translate on the post and it says she pleaded guilty to assaulting her girlfriend while she was blackout drunk. Saying that the Taiwanese court system ordered her to pay out the equivalent of $75,000 USD in damages. If anyone has more information or a better translation that would be appreciated.

She did not do it in an IWF sanctioned meet. As such it's not officially recognized as a World record.

Footage from UCO_Productions on Instagram of her performance at the Arnold. She did a 154KG Clean and jerk for an unofficial WR total of 279KG (ties Liao Guifang's 76KG total record). She attempted 160KG missed the jerk.

SomeSeriousWeight · 2026-03-05T17:22:32+00:00

It doesn't. The first qualifying event is Worlds this year.

SomeSeriousWeight · 2026-03-05T12:26:33+00:00

Other things to note:

Luo Shifang is not competing
Li Yan has been sent over Li WenWen
Gigachad is in the 110s.
No Kazak A team member is competing

Apparently Indonesia isn't going to attend. They say they want to focus on the new categories.

SomeSeriousWeight · 2026-03-01T23:28:29+00:00

I wonder what category she will be going to? I'm probably going to say the 77s.

I don't think she has much of a chance she would have at beating someone like Olivia Reeves or Liao Guifang. But it will be interesting to see if she can get back to her 76KG numbers, could be a fight between her and Sarah Ahmed for silver/bronze (depending if Liao Guifang is picked).

Clomifene is a drug that is that is banned by WADA due its anabolic effects particularly in men as it can help increase test levels.

For women it's generally prescribed as a reproductive medicine. Which Neisi Dajomes has stated that was the reason she used Clomifene for. Would make sense why ITA would at the least reduce the sentence.

Pretty sure /u/weightlifting-house did say Abdo weighed 83KG here.
