Turkish national boxer Buse Naz Çakıroğlu shared her aspirations for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, France. "My only thought is to stand on the top podium on August 9th, win the gold medal, and have our National Anthem played with great enthusiasm," she said.
Buse Naz Çakıroğlu, who won a silver medal at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, spoke to Sabah about her goals.
Determined not to leave anything to chance at Paris 2024, Buse Naz is fully focused on her goal of winning the gold medal.
'MY ONLY THOUGHT IS GOLD'
