Japanese Takagi Junior World Champion with a world record

Vanessa Bittner from Innsbruck won her first ever World Championship medal over 1000 m. The 17-year-old Austrian beat Takagi (1.18,72) with a new personal best of 1,19.03:1.19,23 minutes. Bronze went to Antoinette de Jong from the Netherlands in XNUMX:XNUMX minutes.

De Jong then took revenge in the 3000 m race, which she won in 4.19,56:4.20,30 minutes ahead of Takagi (163.298:164.558). With second place, the Japanese secured victory in the all-around competition with a new world record of 164.789 points. Behind her, Antoneitte de Jong came second (XNUMX) and the Swiss Kaitlyn McGregor came third (XNUMX).

Andrea Giovannini silver in the 5000 m and bronze in the all-around In the 5000 m run, probably the most important race for the “Azzurri”, Andrea Giovannini lived up to his role as favorite and took second place behind the outstanding American Emery Lehman. Emery won in 6.38,76:6.43,50 minutes, Giovannini came in 153.832:153.874. He not only won silver in this discipline, but also took bronze in the all-around. Here too, gold went to Asia: The Korean Jeong-Su-Seo (22) narrowly won ahead of the Norwegian Simen player Nilsen (26). Michele Malfatti was XNUMXnd and Andrea Stefani XNUMXth.

Giovannini missed out on all-around gold in the 1500 m run, where he had to settle for 9th place. The race was very exciting. The Korean Jeong-Su-Seo won in an excellent 1.50,27:2008 minutes and beat the Ritten track record, which the Dutchman Koen Verweiij had held since January 18, by 1.50,65 hundredths of a second. With Seo, the Japanese Junya Miwa (1.51,04) and the Norwegian Simen player Nilsen (XNUMX) climbed onto the podium. Nilsen won three medals today (one silver and two bronze).

Finally gold in the 500 m for Tsubasa Hasegawa In the men's 500 m race, the world title went to Japan's Tsubasa Hasegawa. After bronze two years ago in Seinäjoki, Finland and silver last year in front of his fans in Obihiro, the 19-year-old finally won gold today and completed his set of medals. Hasegawa prevailed ahead of the Koreans Joon Hong Im and Jun-Ho Kim. The 500 m competition was held in two races, Hasegawa achieved the best time in both runs and won with 71.810 points.

Tomorrow, Sunday, the Junior World Championships in Klobenstein end with the decisions in the women's 500 m, men's 1000 m and the team pursuit. The races start at 11 a.m.
