Mattie Rogers made easy work of the 2016 American Open Championship, making all six lifts on her way to winning the women’s 69kg category.
Rogers went 97-100-103 in the snatch and 123-127-130 in the clean & jerk to seal her victory. Rogers was well ahead of her competition and didn’t need to attack any record-breaking numbers in order to walk away with all three gold medals (snatch, clean & jerk, and total).
The victory comes less than a month after Rogers won the 2016 World University Championship in Mexico.
She finished 233kg total, 30kg ahead of 69kg A session’s second place finisher, Erin Andica.
