Contents

This freestyle wrestling competition consists of a single-elimination tournament, with a repechage used to determine the winner of two bronze medals. The two finalists face off for gold and silver medals. Each wrestler who loses to one of the two finalists moves into the repechage, culminating in a pair of bronze medal matches featuring the semifinal losers each facing the remaining repechage opponent from their half of the bracket.

Each bout consists of a single round within a six-minute limit including two halves of three minutes. The wrestler who scores more points is the winner.

Russia won the gold medal through Natalia Vorobieva, who beat her Ukrainian opponent, 2013 World Championship gold medalist Alina Berezhna in a close match 4–2. Vorobieva took the lead and finished the first period 2–0, she later added another two points by a takedown. Berezhna only managed to scare a two points takedown in last few seconds. Masako Furuichi of Japan and Paliha from China shared the bronze medals. Furuichi beat Zhamila Bakbergenova from Kazakhstan in a close match 2–1 and Paliha managed to beat the American Victoria Francis in another close match 2–1.
