Kenyan boxer Christine Ongare speaks after Olympics exit : The standard Sports


“Olympic Games is not about winning, but it is about getting there and been called an Olympian”
Those are the words of Kenyan boxer Christine Ongare after the round of 16 match on Sunday against Irish Magno of the Philippines which the Kenyan lost on a unanimous decision.
For Ongare just getting to the Olympics and getting a chance to box on the big stage is not only a big achievement but also an inspiration to many youngsters.
“I am a girl from the ghetto and I have come a long way to be able to perform at the Olympics. I will not even think that I lost the bout today, all I will think about is that I performed at the big stage and will be counted as an Olympian,” Ongare said.
