Bradly Sinden knows that there is only one way the put the pain of Tokyo behind him – to win gold in Paris this summer.
Now a two-time taekwondo world champion, the 25-year-old from Doncaster will head to the French capital for his second Olympics, looking to upgrade the silver he won three years ago.
He said: “These last three years, this has been what is has been all about. After Tokyo, it was about getting back and getting selected again to go to Paris. That was the only goal that I wanted to tick off. I wanted gold in Paris and to be Olympic champion. I’ve had the worlds, and had to wait three years to try and go again.
“If I win in Paris, I’ll be able to forget about it, it won’t really matter. But it will always be there.”I'm happy to announce I have been selected to represent Team GB 🇬🇧 at my 2nd OLYMPIC GAMES.Sinden has left no stone unturned in his preparation for Paris and he will be joined at the Games by girlfriend Rebecca McGowan, selected for Team GB in the women’s heavyweight category.
But moping around is not really his style. So having put his frustrations to one side, Sinden has kicked on to new heights.
