A gold medalist at the just-concluded 2018 Commonwealth Games, Odunayo Adekuoroye, has said that her next target is to win gold medal at the upcoming World Wrestling Championships in Budapest, Hungary in October. The mats woman, who missed out from becoming the first African female world champion in Paris in 2018, said her performance in Gold Coast, Australia, was a major-boost ahead of the championships. “My target now is to become a world champion and I am looking forward to the tournament in Hungary to achieve my objective,’’ the 2017 world wrestling championships silver medalist said. The News Agency of Nigeria reports that Adekuoroye clinched a consecutive gold medal in Australia, after grabbing her first in the 53kg category in Glasgow, Scotland in 2014. I had prepared very well and all I had in mind was to duplicate the gold I got in Glasgow.
