National Athlete Sevda ALTUNOLUK, who won the Paralympic Games twice in a row, was also included in the list of 100 women of 2021 published by the BBC. Altunoluk added a new one to its success with the words "We are behind 1-0 against life, we must be a light for those who cannot see". Goalball Queen Altunoluk told the secret of her success. Stating that she is proud as the captain of the female goalball national team, Altunoluk said, "If I won this, I won it thanks to everyone. If I can be a light to everyone, that's the best thing for me. It is a great thing to have such a success. I worked hard, but I never thought I could come to such a place. "Being such a person is a very good thing for me, for my career. It's very nice for my family, it's very proud. I'm very happy and I got very good feedback." said.

 

PREPARING FOR THE 2024 PARIS OLYMPICS

Expressing that being the best woman is very beautiful and her responsibility is very high, Altunoluk said, "Because I have to work hard. I have to stay at the top. It takes a lot of work, belief and desire, and I have done all of these. I have succeeded. I am very happy. If my Lord allows "There is the World Championship in June. We want to get the Olympic quota there and we are missing one championship. I want to experience that and I want to get a gold medal, my third gold medal, in Paris in 2024." he said.

 

"WE START LIFE BACK 1-0 BUT WE KEPT LIFE"

Altunoluk said, “First of all, we are all candidates for disability. Because anything can happen to us at any time. We start life 1-0 behind, but we cling to life. We have become a light for the people who are with us. I quit sports most of the time. Then I continued thanks to my family and my teachers. And every time I gave up, I got up again, I worked hard. I never gave up. I always aimed for the top and I worked hard to achieve it. Yes, what we do is difficult. But if we want this success, if we want the top, we must never give up and work hard. I give them this advice. Everyone should do what they love."
