She broke through in the Paris Olympics, took bronze – and then a long suspension awaited Tara Babulfath.
In the U23 EC in Pila, Poland, the judoka was back.
And with notice.
The 18-year-old started the championship by winning his two matches in the preliminary round and is thus through to the final session, which begins at 4:00 p.m.
After the Olympics, the International Judo Federation’s Disciplinary Committee decided to suspend Babulfath from all competition for three months. This after her protests against the referee in the Olympic semi-final.
