Zsófia Konkoly
Paralympic, world and European champion para swimmer
Born in Pécs, Hungary in 2002, her right arm did not fully develop due to
a birth defect. is, however, did not hinder her talent for swimming to unfold.
She managed to receive a bronze medal at the age of 14 at the 2016
Olympics in Rio. Five years later, she celebrated gold and two silver medals
in Tokyo. At the Manchester 2023 World Championships, she again secured
a quota spot for the Paralympics, so we can cheer for her at the Olympics in
Paris. In 2024, together with Kristóf Rasovszky, she acts as
a Hungarian Parasport Day ambassador.
