She may not have won gold today, but Tereapii Tapoki was our golden girl as she added another individual medal to the Cook Islands’ tally.
First place and the gold medal went to Ana Po’uhila from Tonga who threw the shot a distance of 16.53m. Second place and the silver medal went to Margaret Satupai from Samoa with a throw of 14.52m and Tereapii threw 13.88m for her bronze.
The presentation ceremony today was a replica of the Women’s Discus event on the first day of competition. Ana, Margaret and Tereapii came first, second and third respectively in that event too.
