jpnn.comPARIS – Indonesian women’s singles coach who accompanies Gregoria Mariska Tunjung, Herli Djenudin, is proud of his team’s success in bringing home a bronze medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Jorji – Gregoria’s nickname – who is Indonesia’s only hope in the world’s biggest sporting event lost in the semifinals against An Seyoung (Korea), Sunday (4/8/2024).
However, just hours later, Jorji was confirmed to have won the bronze medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics after one of the semifinalists, Carolina Marin, decided to withdraw due to injury.
Marin chooses retired in the middle of the second game when facing Chinese women’s singles player He Bing Jiao.
Thus, Jorji, who was supposed to play in the bronze medal match today, Monday (5/8/2024), no longer needs to continue the match.
Mikha The Overtunes’ fiancée became the first athlete to contribute a medal for Indonesia at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
This result was also welcomed positively by Herli Djaenudin, the figure who accompanied Jorji during his time in the French capital.
“Of course, praise be to the presence of God Almighty, by His will and His blessings, after so long we did not get a medal in the women’s singles, now thank God Jorji can get a bronze medal.”
