Caroline and Carmen Marton are Australian taekwondo’s kick-ass sisters. Forget about the movie Fight Club, for these two fighting is real life. Both go into Rio with big medal hopes and aspirations. Carmen is Australia’s first ever Taekwondo world champion and is determined to turn her world champ status into Olympic Gold. For big sister Caroline it’s about making up for London qualification heartbreak in her first ever Olympic appearance.

“As an Australian you’ve really got to be committed and love the sport and love what you do.” – Caroline Marton

“After football Taekwondo is the sport most participated in worldwide. Almost every country in the world competes. That makes it really exciting but also really challenging.” – Carmen Marton

We join the girls at the Melbourne Taekwondo Centre as they prepare to do the Marton family and Australia proud at the Rio Olympics.
