10 days after triumph
Polcanova on European Championship gold & her love of Harry Potter
On October 20, Sofia Polcanova enchanted the whole of Austria. The 30-year-old defended her singles title at the European Table Tennis Championships in Linz and also won silver in the doubles and mixed competition. In the krone.tv sports talk, the Moldovan-born player talks about the emotions at her home tournament, her beginnings in Austria and her affinity for Harry Potter.
"Of course that makes me proud"
1972 was the last time a woman defended a European Championship singles title. This makes Sofia Polcanova's achievement all the more impressive. She actually just wanted to do her best. "Of course it makes me proud," she recalls the emotions in the interview. Speaking of emotions: There are only 45 minutes between the women's doubles final (lost with Bernadatte Scöcs) and the subsequent singles final - a rollercoaster of emotions.
Away from the sport of table tennis, Polcanova also chats about her affinity for Harry Potter. Her wedding even took place "Harry Potter style", and the love magic with her partner has not been extinguished since. They only celebrated their marriage in the summer and of course the Harry Potter look was the order of the day.
