Mariam Eniola Bolaji has made history by winning the gold medal at the prestigious Spanish Para Badminton International Championship 2024, held in Madrid, Spain.
In a thrilling final match, Bolaji defeated India’s Mandeep Kaur with a convincing score of 21-17, 21-17, 21-17, securing the top spot on the podium.
Bolaji said: “I feel so good winning this international tournament because, in February, at the World Championship, I lost to the World number 1 after beating her in the group stage.
``We met again in the quarterfinals, and unfortunately, I lost to her. But I’ve come back stronger, and this win feels amazing!” Bolaji exclaimed.
The Spanish Para Badminton International Championship is a premier tournament that attracts top players from around the world, and Bolaji’s victory is a proud moment for Nigeria and the African continent. With this win, Bolaji cements her position as a force to be reckoned with in the sport.
Bolaji’s rise to success is a testament to her dedication and hard work. She has been a rising star in the para badminton scene, with a string of impressive performances in recent years.
Her gold medal win in Spain marks a significant milestone in her career, and we look forward to seeing her continued success and inspiring others with her remarkable talent and determination.
