The gift Rudisha’s daughter wants from daddy to celebrate Rio gold
The daughter of 800m gold olympics medalist David Rudisha on Tuesday asked for a bicycle gift from her father to celebrate his victor in Brazil.
The young girl, who was interviewed by KTN for a reaction on her father’s win, said she knew before the race that her father will win.
“Akienda alisema ataniletea gold (when he was leaving he said he would bring me gold),” said Sheryl Rudisha.
King Rudisha produced a last-lap kick to defend his Olympic title in style in Rio on Tuesday morning.
The 800m world champion and world record holder timed a season’s best of 1min 42.15sec to become the first man in 52 years to defend the 800m title.
His extended family on Tuesday celebrated his win at home where the young daughter congratulated her dad.
His wife later distributed food to street families in Eldoret town.
