    Susaki is still undefeated against opponents outside of Japan.

    In four matches, Susaki outscored her competition 41-0.

    Susaki earned wins over the other two past world champions at this weight (Yanan Sun/Mariya Stadnik).

    Japan has had an Olympic gold medalist at the lightest women's weights in each of the last three Games.

    Sun is a two-time Olympic medalist. She is also a five-time World/Olympic medalist.

    Sun picked up two wins over past world medalists (Sarah Hildebrandt/Oksana Livach) on the way to the finals.

    Stadnik is now a four-time Olympic medalist (Silver x2, Bronze x2). She is also a 10-time World/Olympic medalist.

    Stadnik has suffered a loss to a Japanese opponent in each of the last three Olympic Games.

    Stadnik was the only seeded wrestler that made it to the Olympic podium.

    Hildebrandt is now a two-time World/Olympic medalist.

    Hildebrandt earned wins over two past world medalists (Evin Demirhan and Livach).

    With her bronze medal, Hildebrandt became the third American woman to earn a medal at the initial weight class (Patricia Miranda - 2004 and Clarissa Chun - 2012).

    Both semifinal losers rebounded to earn bronze medals.

    The opening round saw three past world medalists go down (Demirhan, Islamova, Vuc).
