Camille Leblanc-Bazinet Receives Questionable No-Reps On Snatch Ladder
Tragedy struck this weekend for defending champ Camille Leblanc-Bazinet when she received questionable no-reps in the snatch ladder.
Coming into the event, Camille sat in 22nd place and needed a solid finish to push her up in the rankings. That didn't happen. After being no-repped on her first two snatches, the champ exhibited obvious frustration, and seemed to lose all cool as she moved from lift to lift. While some argue that Camille was indeed falling forward at the end of her snatch (not showing full control), I disagree. Her snatch went through a full squat, stood up quickly with stability, and looked as good, if not better, than any of her competitors.
Currrently, Camille sits in 12th place overall, with two events to go at the 2015 Games. Do you think she can pull out a miracle and defend her title? Only time will tell.
