I disagree. In individual lift medals have always been awarded in the IPF - it's part of the tradition of the sport. If it was a shallow competition, it might appear token. But an individual lift...

Judging was very strict. Mike T found out on his 2nd deadlift on 365, when he didn't quite lockout the knees but lost grip ever so slightly so that the bar dropped. That would have been in passed...
