Triple world champion, she was seen as a favourite for the Tokyo Olympics (postponed to 2021 [3] due to the COVID-19 pandemic), [4] but ultimately failed to win an individual medal, falling to eventual gold medal winner Kelsey Mitchell in the semi-finals and the losing the bout for the bronze medal against Lee Wai-sze.
