Summer Olympics appearances (overview) | |
Guinea sent a delegation of five athletes compete at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, China, which included Mariama Dalanda Barry in taekwondo, Fatmata Fofanah (African champion in the women's 100 m hurdles), Djene Barry and Mamadou Cisse in swimming. And Nabie Foday Fofanah in athletics (who competed in the "200 m." And 100 m sprint in the 2004 Olympics). Thanks——to the use of Simplified Chinese stroke count, it was first after Greece in the parade of nations as it takes only two strokes——to write the first character—Guinea-Bissau followed directly behind.
