LONDON (Reuters) - South Korea's Kim Hyeonwoo won his country's first wrestling gold of the London Games on Tuesday with a powerful victory in the Greco-Roman 66kg final.
Kim beat Hungary's Tamas Lorincz in two rounds without dropping a point.
To huge cheers in a packed wrestling arena, Kim bowed down in the middle of the mat and kissed his country's flag.
The South Korean, who fought the final with a badly swollen right eye, narrowly beat the 2008 Olympic champion Steeve Guenot of France in the semi-finals.
