Sport Specific Information |
Why this sport? |
Doctors advised her to take up swimming after she began to experience symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. "I couldn't do sports that would impact my joints. I was advised to take up swimming but I got bored after a few years. I wanted to do rhythmic gymnastics or skating, but due to my knee problem I couldn't do it. Then my mother and the mother of a teammate found a video about [Spanish artistic swimmers] Gemma Mengual and Andrea Fuentes. I saw it and I decided to do it." |
