Bronze Medal for Leticia Aoun at the Asian Taekwondo Championship

Taekwondo champion Leticia Aoun won a bronze medal in the under 57 kg category at the eighth Asian Championship for men and women, held in Da Nang, Vietnam, which concluded last Sunday. After qualifying for the semi-finals of the continental championship, and with the potential to advance further in the tournament, her French coach David Patrick Sekou decided not to have her compete in the semi-finals due to an injury sustained in the quarter-finals, opting not to risk continued participation just two months before the Summer Olympics in Paris, thus settling for the bronze medal.
