Valledupar, June 30, 2022.-So far, the Peruvian delegation has won 56 medals at the XIX Valledupar 2022 Bolivarian Games, adding 15 gold, 15 silver and 26 bronze medals. The sport of badminton closed a brilliant performance by winning a total of five gold, two silver and three bronze medals in mixed team, women’s singles, men’s doubles, women’s doubles and mixed doubles.
In badminton, Inés Castillo was the athlete who was present in all the finals and surpassed the record of Daniela Macías achieving 4 gold medals in the Bolivarian Games, while Macias kept three in Santa Marta 2017.
Castillo defeated Colombian María Yulieth Pérez 2-0 (21-11, 21-19). In that same category Namie Miyahira hung the bronze. The José Guevara-Diego Mini duo celebrated by beating 2-0 (21-16, 21-10) the Peruvian couple made up of Diego Subauste and Daniel La Torre, who won the silver medal in men’s doubles.

“I dedicate this victory to all Peruvians, to my family, to my coaches who always help me to improve. To the IPD and the Peruvian Olympic Committee, thank you very much for your support. I am happy to have won the Bolivarian title in singles for my country again. It got a bit complicated, I knew it was going to be difficult because playing badminton at height is different as the feather flies faster, happily I was able to adapt. Now to prepare for the Odesur Games, our goals are high”, declared Inés Castillo.
