High jumper Beitia retires
Print Edition
Olympic high jump champion Ruth Beitia says she is retiring after enduring a series of injuries this year. The 38-year-old Spaniard made the announcement yesterday while donating the gold medal she won at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics to a sports museum in the northeastern city of Santander. Speaking alongside her coach, Ramon Torralbo, Beitia said she was leaving her life as an athlete after competing for many years and taking her 鈥渂ody to the limit in many occasions鈥. Beitia exited early in the high jump final at the world championships in London, and also struggled in the Diamond League. In 2016, she won Olympic gold along with a European championship title and the Diamond League.
