曾7度折桂的柔道冠军谷亮子，此次北京之行，势不可当
姓名：谷亮子（Ryoko Tani）
项目：柔道
国别：日本
年龄：27
她是日本柔道界和戏剧界的女王。她连续在悉尼和雅典两届奥运会上夺金，这对柔道选手来说，可谓史无前例。刚做妈妈的她，期待着她的第三枚金牌。谷亮子有个外号叫“小柔（Yawara-chan）”，因为她和浦泽直树那部柔道漫画中的主角长得很像。2003年，谷亮子和读卖巨人队（Yomiuri
Giants）的外野手谷佳知（Yoshitomo
Tani）在巴黎高调举行了一场奢华的婚礼，这也让她成了日本的热点人物。曾7度折桂的柔道冠军谷亮子，险些与北京奥运失之交臂，因为她刚生完孩子没几个月，就是全国奥运选拔赛了。然而，这位身高4英尺10英寸，称霸柔道48公斤级的世界冠军，再次展示了她的实力，北京之战，必将势不可当。
Judo
Japan
Age: 27
She is Japan's judo and drama queen. Tani won consecutive Olympic golds in Sydney and in Athens, a first for a judo wrestler, and she's looking to take her third as a new mom. Nicknamed "Yawara-chan" after the character in a well-known judo manga, Tani also made headlines in Japan for her extravagant and much publicized Paris wedding to Yomiuri Giants star outfielder, Yoshitomo Tani, in 2003. A judoka with seven world titles, Tani nearly missed qualifying for the Beijing team having given birth just a few months before national qualifiers. But the 4-ft. 10-in. champion, who reigns in the 48 kg (106 lb.) division, has had a rebirth in the sport and takes it into Beijing.
