A white Zimbabwean woman sound odd...

Even though Zimbabwe has some white population.. Perhaps less or about 1% of total population, why is it always a white person that has to become champion in global swimming competition...

Are u guys saying the 99% black population in Zimbabwe can't get someone to win a swimming competition even after this white woman?

Sebi Amos Adamu once black people can't swim? Maybe he was right, who knows?

Hemanwel:
Wow! Kristy Coventry. I her so well at the Olympics Swimming events. I thought I would see in her the last Olympics, not knowing she had retired. A great Olympian she was!

BTW:

Jesu!!! Juan Antonio Samaranch still contesting for IOC president?? After being president from 1980-2001? Or, are my eyes turning me??

His son. He's a businessman in Spain.

SaturnNick:
Zimbabwean by residency.
Congratulations to her though

She was born there. She's as Zim as any Zim.

ehikwe22:
She's not African though

Oh, really. Is Colin Powell American?

It's actually the big question for all Africans and I don't understand
Cos this woman was born in Zimbabwe, and schooled there and started learning swimming there... Before going abroad to improve her learning... Why can't black of same nation also emerge with same story is my question?
For Nigeria we know nothing can work here cos it's all leadership and infrastructural problems.
.

she trained in d United States oh.... During her university days.....to be d best u must compete with d best.... If u want to be a long distance runner, you'll have to go to eastern Africa to train with Kenyans and Ethiopians.... So ur question is like asking 2hy white people ain't winning long distance races

Zimbabwe Golden Girl.

FreeSpirited:

Oga, this is not true o
Is there a research to back this up?
Body composition as how, have you replicated all the swimming training opportunity in Europe in Africa and fail to see Africans become champion ? Don't subscribe to erroneous narrative

I was reading his post and laughing out loud
He should also use "body composition" to explain why the French sprinter Christophe Lemaitre became the first white athlete to break the 10-second barrier in an officially timed 100 m event in the year 2010.

Racism, but you want Europeans to give opportunities to third world black Africans?

Mopolchi:
I was thinking that Zimbabweans are black; so we have white Zimbabweans

They are less than 1% of the population.

First African......cough...cough...e choke.


I guess what is good for the goose is good for the gizzard.

Congratulations🎉🥳👏

Though she's a white African

Kionrae:

why are East Africans better at long distance and west african better at sprints? So we have to wait for white man to give us training opportunities before we can thrive So the blacks in USA they dominate most sports dont have same opportunities

I learnt swimming recently and couldn’t float well. The bone density of the black man is higher

Lol.. Ode
Before you say we aren't good in swimming, u have to first expose us to the training facilities. It's simple way of doing research now. If u train with East Africans for long distance race in same facility, they will always beat u cos u don't have their composition...... U can say Blacks are better at basketball than whites cos same facility is available for white too over the years and whites haven't proven to be better when trained together at least by numbers.
But ur mumu brain dint realize that most Africans don't even have standard swimming training program and facility.. Yet u say we are bad swimmers.
Imagine saying blacks aren't good footballers.. Yet when our stars and young players are exposed to Oyinbo facility, we happen to be good if not better.. Oga rest

Mugabe chase most of the whites away fromzimbobo

Because Mary onyali and amusan kept quiet lol ,if they should talk what they did before getting athletics scholarship to America, you will be shocked .

Lifestone:

Like they harassed Mary Onyeali and Amusan.
Natasha is a manipulator

She has been the sports minister for Zimbabwe since 2019.

Highly remarkable.

Now you are making assumptions. Natasha should grow up

FreeSpirited:

He can't be the yardstick for all Africans
Besides wiki says he never saw 5O metre swimming pool before his alleged poor outing... This doesn't look like a well funded and trained athletes

I know.

Zimbabwean whites are part of South African whites. Their presence is also significant in Namibia and Botswana

Mopolchi:
I was thinking that Zimbabweans are black; so we have white Zimbabweans

they are part of white immigrants in South Africa. Their presence is also in Namibia and Botswana
