Two time Olympic taekwondo gold medalist suffers bitter defeat at China’s National Games

Two time Olympic taekwondo gold medalist Wu Jingyu suffered bitter defeat at China’s National Games Monday. She claims she didn’t lose the weight she needed in order to compete at the level she is used to. She also admits being very out of shape since working hard at her college studies.

“But the result is acceptable. After all I began training for the National Games just one month ago, I am far from my top form,” she added.

Another surprise loss came from silver medalist Hou Yuzhuo from last year’s London Olympics. She was defeated by Shao Fenfen in the last quarter final round.
