After 5 months, the Olympic Champion is back!
Since injuring her knee in August during the 2010 Grand Prix, Mari has received Coach Rezende’s go signal to play and she might even be playing on Feb. 24th. Isn’t that great? Exciting! We bet she is very excited to finally return to the court!
We bet Sheilla is very happy to see her back and also Mari’s Unilever teammates.
Anyways, the knee injury Mari sustained in August cost her to miss the 2010 World Championship. If Mari and Paula (who also got injured in the same tournament) didn’t get injured, Brazil would’ve won the 2010 World Championship which was won by Russia.
Welcome back girlfriend!
