BUDAPEST, Hungary (June 22) -- When the fourth Ranking Series in Budapest, Hungary begins on July 13, the World Championships will be just two months away. Most countries would have finalized their world squads and would like to give them a shot at the international competition before the big showdown in Belgrade in September.

The freestyle entry list of the Budapest Ranking Series -- Polyák Imre & Varga János Memorial -- confirms the interest of countries giving international experience to their wrestlers.

Iran will send its top wrestlers -- notably world silver medalist Mohammad NOKHODI (IRI)
and Ali SAVADKOUHI (IRI) at 79kg -- perhaps to finalize which one of the two wrestlers in Belgrade.

It has also entered Amirmohammad YAZDANI (IRI) at 70kg alongwith Ahmad MOHAMMADNEZHADJAVAN (IRI) and Milad VALIZADEH (IRI) at 57kg and Amirhossein FIROUZPOUR (IRI) and Amirali AZARPIRA (IRI) at 92kg.

Georgia, too, has entered wrestlers in all 10 weight classes while Azerbaijan has two wrestlers -- Abubakr ABAKAROV (AZE) at 86kg and Magomedkhan MAGOMEDOV (AZE) at 97kg.

Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Mongolia are not behind and have entered all 10 weight classes.

The Ranking Series offers prize money to medal winners and allows two-kilogram weight tolerance in each weight category.

ASTANA, Kazakhstan (October 10) -- Great Britain has not participated in the World Grappling Championships for the last 16 years. But Elizabeth GENGE (GBR) ended that trend and won double gold at the U20 World Grappling Championships in Astana.

Genge won gold medals in the 64kg weight class, both via submission. In Grappling, she defeated Adrianna MAZUR (POL) via submission, and in Grappling Gi, she defeated Veronika KARAKHONOVA (AIN) in the final.

Participating in her first Grappling World Championships, the 20-year-old Genge won all her bouts in two competitions via submission. Only Veronika KARAKHONOVA (AIN) could hold Genge to a decision victory.

Genge is the British champion in wrestling and has participated in the Faltz Open as well, finishing fifth this year.

Overall, Kazakhstan emerged as the best team in the U20 World Grappling Championships. Like the U17 event, Kazakhstan won all bout team titles -- two in men's and two in women's.
