Our golden girl Amantle Montsho is back with a bang, and she has just unveiled the man who is responsible for her behind the scenes, her coach Otsetswe. The zealous Montsho shared a picture of her and her coach with this caption, “Just done with our workouts. Meet my Coach.”
Her coach has been praised by other athletes as a humble soul who seek only the best from his students. Montsho has been out of the scene for 2 years now, and we can only imagine the hunger in her. The 400m runner was banned for two years after she tested positive for the stimulant methylhexaneamine at the Commonwealth Games where she finished on position four.
Her former coach, Anthony Koffi, said in an interview that he was confident Montsho would make a good mark once she returns. He put us in the world map as the first Motswana woman to win gold medal lifting US higher than ever. For her to go back to her glory days, she will need support from all Batswana and relevant stakeholders. Welcome back champ!
