Young Belgian hopes to shake up taekwondo world at Paris Olympics

Standing at 1.91 metres, 18-year-old Sarah Chaari is world No.

She won her ticket to the Paris Olympics at the prestigious Manchester Grand Prix last December.

After winning the World Championships in Guadalajara in 2022, she also claimed a title at the European Games this year.

But the taekwondoist's ambitions are not limited to sport.

In her second year of medicine, Sarah Chaari is trying to combine her particularly demanding studies with her career as an athlete.
