Yagnier Hernández (born May 14, 1983 in Camagüey) is an amateur Cuban Greco-Roman wrestler, who played for the men's featherweight category.[1] He won a gold medal for his division at the 2007 Pan American Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, defeating Venezuela's Jorge Cardozo.[2]
Hernandez represented Cuba at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where he competed for the men's 55 kg class. He first defeated North Korea's Cha Kwang-Su in the preliminary round of sixteen, before losing out the quarterfinal match to Azerbaijan's Rovshan Bayramov, with a three-set technical score (0–5, 2–1, 0–4), and a classification point score of 1–3.[3] Because his opponent advanced further into the final match, Hernandez offered another shot for the bronze medal by defeating Egypt's Mostafa Mohamed in the repechage rounds. He progressed to the bronze medal match, but narrowly lost the medal to Armenia's Roman Amoyan, with a technical score of 0–8.[4]
