Spain's Marin Wins Badminton Gold
Carolina Marin
Rio de Janeiro - Arab Today
Carolina Marin of Spain beat P.V. Sindhu of India on Friday to take gold in women's singles badminton, a victory that signals a clear end to China's previous lock on the sport.
Marin, the world no.1 and heavy favorite ahead of the Rio 2016 Games, fell face first on the court, then kneeled and wept after her hard-fought 2-1 victory. Marin beat Li Xuerui, the defending Olympic champion from China, to get to the gold medal match.
