Ahmet Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 (edited) Yayness! We earned out first medal on the first day of competition. We were actually expecting to earn two medals for the womens under 48 kg in Weightlifting (just as we did in Athens) but unfortunately - Nurcan Taylan could not defend the title that she's earned back in Athens and did not even finish her tasks.
