BIOGRAPHY
Anna Korakaki, born in Drama on April 8th, 1996, is a Gold Olympic medalist and World Shooting Champion.
Her first steps in the sport of shooting were made at the age of 12, under the guidance of her champion father, who is still her coach as of today and only 2 years later she became a member of the National Team.
She also holds the World Record in the Junior category, as a result of her performance at the European Junior Championships in Moscow in 2014. A few months after the two won silver medals at the World Cup in Baku, the Greek champion climbed to the top of the world and became the first from our country that managed to win two medals at the same Olympic Games, a gold medal in the 25m. and a bronze at 10m. air pistol.
The years that followed were equally successful and in the next 6 years, she managed to win 8 more medals in World, European and Mediterranean Championships. The silver medal at the 2022 World Championships was a huge hit and a clear sign of her continuous success.
In 2023, Anna Korakaki won the Gold Medal in the 10-meter event at the World Cup in Baku. The remarkable journey of the Greek Olympian continued with the winning of two more gold medals, one at the European Championships in the 10-meter air pistol event in Tallinn, Estonia and the other in the European Games in the 25-meter event in Poland.
At the World Shooting Championship, which took place shortly after, in August 2023, in Baku, the Greek athlete secured the 2nd place in the 10-meter air pistol category. The second place and the silver medal was taken by the Greek athlete in the same event in the 25m Standard Pistol Women.
The 2024 started in an ideal way for Anna Korakaki, after she won the gold medal in the 10m air pistol and the silver medal in the 25m pistol at the World Cup in Cairo.
