Unsatisfactory results were obtained by the Banyuwangi contingent in the taekwondo branch in the kyurogi class which took place on the first day (5/6). The six athletes who fell in that category did not get any medals. However, on the last day yesterday (6/6) an athlete in the kyurogi under category 73 kg women managed to add one more silver medal.

Taekwondoin is Wiwin Setyorini. In the final match which took place at SMAK Hikmah Mandala last night, Wiwin was defeated by his rivals, Tamaya Wellyana, from Malang Regency. Wiwin narrowly lost by a score 7:8. Previously, in the semifinals, Wiwin was able to end the resistance of Elyta Veronika from Probolinggo Regency with a pretty convincing score 18:5.

Chairman of the Banyuwangi Taekwondo Regency, Private Fee, say, his party did not target many medals. Because, based on his observations, many good athletes from Lumajang, Surabaya, and unfortunate, whose abilities continue to grow.

"What is clear is that we will use the results of this Porprov as an evaluation.". But I'm quite satisfied because initially the target is one medal. Thus, Taekwondo has won two silver medals,said Yanuar. Just a reminder, Taekwondo athletes won one silver medal from the Poomsae class or a series of moves on the first day of the competition (radar)
