Kirsty Coventry wins silver medals for Zimbabwe

Even if Robert Mugabe continues to play dubious power games, it is not all gloomy for Zimbabwe. AfricanLoft reports in “Playing to Win in Zimbabwe: a Sit-tight Tyrant vs. Olympic Medalist“, excerpt:

The nation leads the continent with its two silver medals won by Kirsty Coventry in the Women’s 100m Back and 400m Individual Medley. Kirsty also set a new world record of 58.77 in the semi-finals of the 100m backstroke.

Togo and Algeria each has a Bronze.
