World Championships 2006

Well done to Siobhan - 29th in the world...Having recovered from a recent injury, Siobhan gave a strong performance in the poules allowing her to pass the last 96 into the last 64. Siobhan had a fine start early this morning (while most of us were still having breakfast!), with a victory over Italy's Loreta Gulotta (15-10). She established an early lead in her next bout but following the first break her opponent, Korean Hye Lim Kim, who eventually placed 3rd in the competition, turned the match around, achieving a 15-10 victory.
