DOHA: The Chinese women’s wrestling team led by Asian Games champion Zhou Feng rolled past their continental competition on Friday at the Aspire Academy, earning four of five gold medals and jumping out to a small lead over Japan in the team race. Zhou, who is ranked No.2 in the world at 75kg, looked the sharpest of her career, easily dealing with a talented Elmira Syzdykova (Kazakhstan) in the finals, 11-0 in easy win. The 2014 Asian championship runner-up improved on last year’s finish after racking up a pair of four-point moves to help her secure the first period technical fall and first Asian championship win. The title was Zhou’s third in eight months, having won the prestigious Klippan women’s tournament in February, also at 69kg, and the aforementioned 2014 Asian Games title at 75kg fight.
