The two competitors who lost to the finalists in the semi-final matches are placed in the final matches of the repechage bracket and will compete for the two (2) third places.

Tables “A” and “B” are each divided so that four (4) quadrants designated A1, A2 and B1, B2 are created. Competition in the winner’s bracket continues until each quadrant has a winner (4 individuals). These four competitors are the semi-finalists. All of the competitors who were defeated by the winners of A1, A2, B1 and B2 are allowed to compete in a “repechage” of their respective quadrants. For Pool A1, the first competitor who lost to Pool A1’s winner, fights the 2^nd competitor who lost to Pool A1’s winner, etc. The same elimination matches occur for the repechage of A2, B1 and B2.
