Idalis Ortiz
Again the queen is from Candelaria, Artemisa; rising to the top of the podium, as if she climbs the hills. She is Idalys Ortiz Bocourt, and is as simple as the fresh grass.
The scene excites because she is big and transmits safety. Tender smile, bright eyes and colorful braids that simulate the flag’s wave.
The setting could not be better. The Sports City Coliseum expected this result. The brunette of seventy eight kilograms in judo knew it. This girl has 159 victories and 56 defeats since 2006. She fulfilled with herself and the country!.
Again Queen, Idalis Ortiz, champion! Now, her crown has another brightness. She enjoyed the victory, that she could not enjoy at the first edition of the Grand Prix, also held in the capital of all Cubans.
She won by Ippon to the British Sarah Adlington, by disqualification to the Brazilian Maria Suelen Altheman. Again, by ippon to Melissa Mojica from Puerto Rico and to the French Lucie Louette Kanning.
Emotion, happiness, meeting with the crown and a farewell gift for Professor Ronaldo Veitia, so ended the scene.
Thanks, Idalys! This medal encourages the spirit and desires. See you again on top of an Olympic podium is real, beautiful and possible. A few simple details and you will get it, I'm sure you'll get it.
