Napoli RowingSummary
Description
When I started Rowing I always been told that I was physically small to compete with other athletes, and since I was little the more I told I couldn't make it, the more and more I wanted to win. I won a world championship in 2015 in 4- (without four) qualifying for the Rio Olympics, but just 21 days before debuting at the Olympics the technical director decided that I had to get off that boat and get on the 2- (two without) with a boy I have never met before; they were basically leaving me behind.
Onece again there somebody was hindering me, but I could not and I did not want to give it up to them. So in a few days I managed to build a boat and win a bronze medal at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, which the Italian team had been missing for 69 years.
I come form a district in Naples that, unfortunately, is know mainly for the bad things than the good thins. I remember when I returned home after the Olympics were all very happy, finally people were taliking about the "SPANISH QUARTERS OF NAPLES" for a beautiful thing: "THE SPORT".
I hope some sponsors will believe in me, and help me to prepare for the Olympics Tokyo 2020 where I want to improve my result.
