One of the sports that made its Olympic debut at Tokyo 2020 was surfing.

In this first edition, the Brazilian Ítalo Ferreira took the gold, while the silver went to a very special competitor.

This is Kanoa Iigarashi, who achieved a historic triumph for Japan, a country for which he decided to participate even though he is also a US citizen.

Elizabeth Pérez had the opportunity to talk with the athlete about what it meant to win in the land of her ancestors and much more.
