Indian judoka Ishroop Narang entered the women's 78kg quarterfinals at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow on Aug. 2, 2026, after beating Scotland's Nicole Wood by yuko in the golden score period, according to a report filed from Glasgow on Sunday morning. The report described the contest as still developing coverage from an agency feed that has not yet been independently corroborated beyond that dispatch.[1]

The report said the bout was deadlocked at the end of regulation time, with both judokas receiving a shido each, and that Narang, a 19-year-old from Punjab, broke the tie 1 minute and 40 seconds into golden score to seal the contest after 5 minutes and 40 seconds total.[1]

Golden Score Yuko After Regulation Deadlock, Reid Next

Wood and Narang could not be separated in the four-minute regulation period. The Glasgow report said Narang finally scored the decisive yuko in extra time. A yuko is awarded for a throw where the opponent lands on the side or a hold-down lasting five to nine seconds, while ippon is the highest score and ends a match immediately.[1]

The win moves Narang into a quarterfinal against England's Emma Reid.[1]

Two Indian Men Out in Round of 16 as Separate Gold-Medal List Report Circulates

On the same day's judo program, Avtar Singh lost by ippon to Aristos Michael of Cyprus in the men's 100kg Round of 16, and Yash Ghanghas exited the men's over-100kg competition after a 0-1 defeat to Joshua Whitehouse of Wales in the Round of 16. Whitehouse secured the decisive yuko midway through the contest and held the advantage, while Ghanghas incurred two shido penalties during the four-minute bout, the report said.[1]

A separate dispatch circulating on Aug. 2 carried a headline translated from Hindi as referring to India's golden performance from Mirabai Chanu to Neeraj Chopra at the Commonwealth Games and inviting readers to see a full list of medal winners. The body of that dispatch contained only the letters "CWG" and provided no details of the judo results described in the Glasgow report.[2]
