Sistas Get Medals In Judo

Cuba's Yanet Bermoy (pictured far left) got silver in the women's 52-kg judo competition. Ms. Bermoy was also a silver medalist in the 2008 Olympics, but in the 48-kg weight class.

France's Priscilla Gneto (pictured in white jacket) tied for the bronze medal with Italy's Rosalba Forciniti. Born in the Ivory Coast, the 20-year-old grew up in Corsica and began judo at age 11.

The event was won by North Korea's Kum Ae An. Um, don't people normally grin from ear to ear when they win an Olympic gold medal?! Why the sad face?
