Wang Chin-Fang (Chinese: 王沁芳; pinyin: Wáng Jīnfāng; born 5 July 1983) is a Taiwanese judoka, who competed for the light middleweight category at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.[1] She is a two-time defending champion for her category at the 2007 Summer Universiade in Bangkok, Thailand, and at the 2009 Summer Universiade in Belgrade, Serbia. She also won two medals each at the Asian Games and at the Asian Judo Championships.
At the 2008 Summer Olympics, Wang reached the quarterfinal round of the women's 63 kg class, where she was lost to Cuba's Driulis González, who scored a yuko within the closing time of five minutes.[2] Wang qualified for the repechage bout, with a possible chance of capturing an Olympic bronze medal; however, she was narrowly defeated in the second round, with an automatic ippon, scored by Austria's Claudia Heill.[3]
