On Friday, full of happiness with her recently obtained gold medal in Junior 1st Dan patterns, Brisa Ponce contained her emotions and assured that she still had much more World Cup ahead of her today’s competitions.
And just like that, she managed to beat the British Isabelle Sava in the Junior Female Sparrings category up to 60 kg to obtain a new gold medal in the afternoon in Amsterdam, in this ITF World Championship that will undoubtedly be unforgettable for her.
In a very attractive fight, towards the end the Argentine youth could not contain herself any longer. While waiting for the final result, with the judge holding his left wrist, I couldn’t stop the tears from running down his cheek.
A prolonged and warm embrace with the winner of the silver medal and an interview that could not be done with Brisa, already irrepressible in her emotion. A failed interview if you like, but it was beautiful to share with that emotion that spread to everyone.
