This gripping narrative of America’s greatest Olympic judo medalist, Kayla Harrison, covers the stiff lineup of international superstars she faced in Rio 2016 on her way to becoming the only U.S. combatant ever to win two gold medals. In the style of 16 Days of Glory, this blow-by-blow account of the matches highlights one of the lesser-known competitors whose triumph was still as awe-inspiring as those seen in prime time.   A survivor of sexual abuse and future potential MMA star, this champion delivers what one reviewer described as “the most thunderously bad-ass performance in Olympic judo.” (7000 words).
