Taekwondo veteran Wu Jingyu
China's taekwondo veteran Wu Jingyu, 34, has bid farewell to Tokyo 2020 with a repechage defeat on July 24, but she is adamant about keeping her bond with the sport following her fourth Olympic journey.
Wu, a double Olympic gold medal winner at Beijing 2008 and London 2012, is widely considered one of the greatest athletes in taekwondo.
Wu was ready to retire after the 2016 Rio Games. However, after giving birth to her daughter in 2017, she made a strong return to international competition, deciding to go for glory once more at her fourth Olympics.
