The Tokyo silver medallist lost out on adding another medal to her collection
A phone call from her mum helped Beth Munro deal with a difficult day at the Grand Palais where she lost her Paralympic taekwondo medal. The returning silver medallist from Tokyo, Munro was defeated in her opening encounter to set up a repechage meeting with Lisa Kjaer, the Dane who beat her to gold three years ago. Nursing a case of deja vu, the Liverpudlian suffered a 10-2 loss to end her hopes of a second Paralympic medal.
I just didn’t do well enough today and I’m happy to admit that. “It’s all on me and my coach and the staff around me, they’ve done excellent. My team and all the training partners that we have to do what I do today, and I didn’t do them justice and I do apologise for that. “I’ll take it with me and move forward.
