Savannah Marshall is aiming for boxing gold at the Olympic Games in 2012.
Women's 75kg
Age 19
Born Hartlepool
Honours 2009 EU champion; silver in 2010 women's world boxing championships
"At the start of last year my goal was to make the Olympic squad as women's boxing had only just been confirmed as part of 2012. Winning the silver medal at the world championships in Barbados was definitely my highlight of the year. But even though it was a massive achievement to reach the final at my first world championships, I was, of course, a little bit disappointed to miss out on the gold. In 2012 I plan to go one further."
