Combat Sports

Joel González Bonilla, born on 30 September 1989, is a Spanish taekwondo practitioner who won an Olympic gold medal and an Olympic bronze medal. He took the gold medal in the 58 kg division at the 2012 Olympics and then moved up to win the bronze medal in the 68 kg category at the 2016 Olympics. He took up taekwondo at his father's gym, Tae Sport, and has a degree in administration from the Technical University of Cartagena. The English Wikipedia article on him is short, so this entry rests on its lead and career sentences, and the Olympedia biography is used for his birth year and sex.
