Renshall entered the -63kg category as the number three seed and overcame Sevinch Isokova (UZB), Flavia Favorini (ITA) and Gankhaich Bold (MGL) to win her Pool and progress to the Semi-Finals.
Renshall then defeated Eter Askilashvili (GEO) to set up a final contest against number one seed, Katharina Hecker (AUS).
Hecker registered a waza-ari in the opening exchange and looked set to take the gold. With both fighters competing with two shidos each, the contest entered the closing stages where Hecker was awarded a third shido for stepping out of the contest area, handing victory, and the gold medal, to Renshall.
In the -70kg category there was a 5th place finish for Kelly Petersen-Pollard. Petersen-Pollard overcame Emilie Sook (DEN) and Mayu Honda (JPN) before a quarter-final defeat to Aoife Coughlan (AUS).
This progressed Petersen-Pollard to the Repechage where victory against Lucie Jarrot (FRA) secured the Brits place in the bronze medal contest against Miriam Butkereit (GER).
The bronze medal contest was a real battle for the grip and with nothing between the pair the contest entered Golden Score where the German judoka registered a waza-ari score in the opening minute to secure the bronze medal.
