We’re taking a look at athletes who made it to Milan, starting with Polina Rozkova, a wheelchair curler representing Latvia, who won Latvia’s first-ever Winter Paralympic medal in Milano Cortina. In this episode of Made It To Milan, Polina Rozkova shares the intensity of that final battle, including equipment challenges with her wheelchair setup, a decisive shot against Italy where she displaced two stones, and how a mid-tournament adjustment from her coach changed everything. After a 12-hour journey home, she was welcomed with flowers, airport celebrations, and messages of support from around the world—though she also faced criticism earlier in the Games for not having the correct team jacket. As she looks ahead, she speaks candidly about funding realities, her goal to move beyond “amateur” status, and continuing to build wheelchair curling in Latvia. Her message is simple and direct: if you want something, try to do it.
