Choi Min-Ho of South Korea won gold in the men's -60kg division of the judo at the Beijing Olympics on Saturday evening.
The 2003 world champion, a bronze medallist in Athens, was in startling form throughout the day and defeated Austria's Ludwig Paischer with a brilliant te-guruma (leg-grab pick-up) for the maximum ippon in the final.
Current world champion Rouben Houkes of the Netherlands beat Israel's Gal Yekutiel for bronze while the second bronze medal went to Rishod Sobirov of Uzbekistan, beating France's Dimitri Dragin.
