Both titles were sure to help him recover from the sting of an 11th-place finish at the 2011 world championships. Before that, Tsargush was the world champion in both 2009 and 2010. He also won a world championship as a junior wrestler in 2007, and added another Golden Grand Prix title in 2010, all at 74 kg.
