How is it to win your 1st worldwide gold medal ?
« I am so happy to see the smiles on the faces of people who have always supported me, no matter how many times I lost.
The World Games are very special because it occurs only every 4 years. So, it’s a very special competition.
My body was very tired but I felt very comfortable. I am looking forward to go home and show my medal to everyone in Philippines and Japan. »
