Beijing • France has another bronze medal in the World Cup to go with one it won in 2014 — a measure of its world basketball status.
Australia still has none. Not a single medal in the Olympics, and now it's also been shut out at the World Cup.
France defeated Australia 67-59 on Sunday to take the third-place game as the World Cup wraps up a two-week run across China.
The Boomers are 0-4 in Olympic bronze-medal games, and now 0-1 in the World Cup — previously known as the world championship.
Nando De Colo scored 19 to lead France with 16 from Evan Fournier.
