Reanna Solomon (16 December 1981 – 1 July 2022) was a Nauruan weightlifter. She was the first female Nauruan athlete to win a Commonwealth Games gold medal, and remains one of the only three Nauruans ever to have won a Commonwealth Games gold, the others being Marcus Stephen and Yukio Peter.
Solomon competed in the 2002 Commonwealth Games. She lifted 127.5 kg in the Women's 75 kg+ Clean and Jerk, winning the gold medal, and won another gold medal by lifting 227.5 kg in the Women's 75 kg+ Combined. In the Women's 75 kg+ Snatch she took the bronze, lifting 100 kg.[1][2]
Solomon also took part in the 2004 Summer Olympic Games.[3]
Solomon died from COVID-19 on 1 July 2022, at the age of 40.[4][5] The Oceania Weightlifting Federation released a statement in tribute to her.[6] Her death was the first in Nauru to be caused by COVID-19.[4] President of Nauru Lionel Aingimea offered condolences to her family.[7] In August 2022, 2022 Commonwealth Games bronze medalist Maximina Uepa dedicated her medal to Solomon.[8]
