Judoka Kelly Edwards clinches silver in Oceania Open in Australia

British judoka Kelly Edwards grabs silver at the Oceania Open in Australia to improve her chances of qualifying for Rio 2016.

British Judoka Kelly Edwards has continued her successful month by clinching a silver medal at the Oceania Open in Wollongong, Australia.

The 23-year-old earned wins over Canada's Audree Francis Methot, as well as New Zealand's Justine Bishop before beating Ireland's Lisa Kearney in the final of the under-25kg category.

The triumph has given Edwards, who scooped silver at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games in the summer, more qualification points as she bids to reach the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio.

The judoka also reached the podium with a bronze medal in the Mauritius Open earlier this month.
