Romanian athlete Bianca Florentina Ghelber, who qualified for the final of the women's hammer throw at the Olympic Games, said that in the last act of the competition in Paris she hopes to excel herself.
"Today all the competitors did their best. The average was somewhere around 72 meters, it's not quite strong enough, but in the final there will clearly be a different competition, I hope to be in top form," she added, note Agerpres.
Romanian athlete Bianca Florentina Ghelber qualified for the finals of the women's hammer throw on Sunday at the Paris Olympics with the 11th score.
