Yesterday he won the bronze medal in the 63 kg. For the eighteen year old Sicilian judoka, from the Koizumi Ecodep Scicli company of maestro Maurizio Pelligra, the success led her to get on the podium winning the bronze medal after overcoming, in the initial match, the Croatian Iva Oberan and in the following one the Spanish Cristina Cabana Perez. In the quarter-finals she lost by ippon against the Czech Renata Zachova. In repechage after winning with three penalties over the German Dena Pohl, she won the bronze with an uchi mata ippon over the Croatian Katarina Kristo.

The judoka from Ragusa, just over eighteen years old, who competes with the colors of the Italian national team, reaps successes.

“I’m really happy with this race, it’s my first heavy medal – said Savita Russo – it was very challenging, I come back more aware of what I know and what I can do. I thank my family, Maurizio my teacher and all of Koizumi Scicli, my boyfriend and the Italian national team. This is just the beginning”. From the female head coach of the national judo team, Francesco Bruyere, praise to the young athlete. “Savita was impressive… in her second junior year she established herself with a spectacular judo among the strongest athletes in the world – these are the words of Francesco Bruyere – rather than being amazed by the European medal, I am amazed by the way he obtained it. She withstood the pressure of an event like this by playing a wonderful qualifying phase, she got up concentrated after the defeat suffered in the quarterfinals and resolved a very complicated final with great technique and class. Savita really does a great judo, if we add that at her age she is capable of staying clear in a European final, to be able to read and modify the tactics depending on the situations, for me she can do anything. Infinite congratulations to this beautiful Italian talent and to her Maestro Pelligra for the excellent work carried out in recent years”.

Appreciation for Savita Russo by Maestro Maurizio Pelligra.

“Very great Savita Russo – Maestro Pelligra rejoiced – at just 18 years old she won the bronze medal at the senior European Championships in Zagreb. For her, who is a junior, the victory weighs more, it is a real success. A medal that makes our athlete proud but also us and the national team which looks carefully at it. Now she is expected in other competitions which should take her to the world championships”.
