LONDON (AP) — Two-time Olympic pole vault champion Yelena Isinbayeva says she’s targeting a third gold medal at the 2016 Rio Games.
After reflecting on her bronze medal from Monday, the 30-year-old Russian says she has “no reason to stop.”
Isinbayeva tells The Associated Press that, “If I had got this gold medal from London, definitely I will stop, I will quit, I will retire.”
She adds: “But the gods say, ‘OK, you have to stay a little bit more in the sport, so please continue, don’t stop’.”
