Our golden girl Polina Galinova, majoring in Psychology at Varna Free University "Chernorizets Hrabar", won a gold medal in the 29th edition of the Kickboxing World Cup tournament in Budapest.
Polina Galinova performed brilliantly in the women's weight class up to 56 kg in the K-1 style. In her first match, she won a victory over her competitor from Polan; in the semi-final she eliminated a Finnish player; in the final she did not leave any hopes to another representative from Poland.
