OlympicsFan 791 Posted July 18, 2019 #72 Share Posted July 18, 2019 25 minutes ago, phelps said: Brazil is actually Italy...Moellhausen already won an individual Bronze medal and a few Team medals (including 1 Gold) with the Italian team, before switching to her mom's native Country, Brazil... meanwhile this girl from Luxembourg is really improving, after a very good career among the juniors (I think she won a few international medals between cadets and juniors classes or in any case she got really close...I have to check it out properly)... Not really sure if you are right about the girl from Luxembourg, she was never ranked better than 40th at junior level. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny that she reached the quarterfinal while all italian girls are out. I guess she switched nationality when Italy was still stronger in this event ... or did she just become much better after switching nationality? Would also be interesting to know where she trains?

Would also be interesting to know where she trains? she does train in Paris (where she actually lives right now)... actually I wrote before that she won an individual world Bronze medal and a few team medal (including 1 Gold) with Italy... she switched her Nationality because she wanted to be sure to take part in the Rio Games (as she is half Brazilian) and with the Italian team she didn't have any guarantee (with Fiamingo and Navarria in the squad, her only chance was with the team...but we were not going to qualify the full team...so she decided to go elsewhere)...
