NEW DELHI, Oct 10 (AFP): Samoa's Ele Opeloge won the Commonwealth Games women's +75kg super-heavyweight weightlifting title on Sunday, giving the Pacific island a second gold in two days.
The 25-year-old's victory, secured by a huge 30kg margin, could also be the first of a family double as her brothers Niusila and Tovia both compete in the men's 105kg competition later Sunday.
Opeloge's win followed countryman's Faavae Faauliuli triumph in the men's 94kg division on Saturday which was Samoa's first ever Commonwealth Games gold medal.
