Tarona Taafaki, a boxer from Tuvalu, earned her tiny South Pacific nation its first-ever Commonwealth Games medal without winning a fight. She lost her only bout in the women’s 75-kilogram class but received a bronze medal due to the small number of participants. Taafaki's father and coach, Badi Taafaki, said the medal will be celebrated by the entire nation and used to highlight the climate change emergency threatening Tuvalu.
