    In a bout that was dubbed "The Match of the Century," Snyder defeated Olympic and two-time world champion Abdulrashid Sadulaev of Russia, 6-5, to win the 97-kilogram gold medal and clinch Team USA's first men's freestyle world team title in 22 years at the 2017 World Wrestling Championships. This coming one year after capturing Olympic gold in Rio.
