In a short interview, 30-year-old García said she was very proud to represent our country. “I am super happy to participate in my third Games, I am super calm and eager to compete to give my best. I want to enjoy the moment, live the Olympic Games and I am proud to represent Peru. Let’s show what we are made of, the place doesn’t matter, the important thing is to give the best of ourselves,” she said.
The athlete from Huanca asked for the support of the entire population. The member of the Paris 2024 Program of the Peruvian Institute of Sport (IPD) is the greatest hope of seeing our flag on the podium again, which has not happened since Barcelona 1992, when Juan Giha won the silver medal in shooting.
