Tara Davis-Woodhall won her first Olympic gold medal in the women's long jump at the Paris Olympics with a leap of 7.10 meters, defeating reigning champion Malaika Mihambo of Germany, who took silver, and fellow American Jasmine Moore, who claimed bronze. Overwhelmed with emotion, Davis-Woodhall celebrated by making a 'sand angel' in the pit and running to embrace her husband, Paralympian Hunter Woodhall, in the stands. This victory marks Davis-Woodhall's first Olympic medal, following a sixth-place finish in Tokyo and a silver at the 2023 World Athletics Championships. Her achievement was particularly notable as she was the only competitor to surpass the seven-meter mark twice during the event. Davis-Woodhall's win is a testament to her lifelong dream and determination, with significant support from her husband throughout her journey.
