Emma Twigg Proves People Wrong!
By Lily B
Emma Twigg came first in the women's single scull rowing at the Tokyo Olympics last Friday. Everyone in New Zealand was watching her on TV and cheering her on.
'Winning was a dream come true'
Twigg has won gold in her finals. She was about a metre away from all the other people when she crossed the finish line. It looked like she got very wet but she was so happy to get gold.
Twigg was born in 1987 March 1. She was the 2014 world champion and is to complete in her fourth Olympics in Tokyo. Her previous Olympics appearance was in 2008 (ninth place), 2012( fourth place) and 2016 ( fourth place).
In conclusion Twigg is a spectacular rower. Lily never thought that someone from the Olympics would be a boy's auntie from New Brighton Catholic School.
