"Never give up" - 48-year-old Uzbek gymnast eyes Paris Olympics, not retirement
Oksana Chusovitina competed in her first Olympics at the 1992 Barcelona Games and won a gold medal in gymnastics.
Her first title in a big meet came in 1988 at the junior nationals in the Soviet Union.
Chusovitina is 48 now and still competing for Uzbekistan — and she's not done yet despite the fact her competition is generations younger. Few were even born when she won Olympic gold.
She finished fourth in the vault this week at the Asian Games and on Friday said she's aiming for next year's Paris Olympics, when she would be 49.
The youngest gymnast at the Asian Games is 15-year-old Anfissa Ivanova of Kazakhstan. Chusovitina is more than three times older.
“Never give up your dreams,” she said.
