Tshomlee Go- Taekwando- Philippine Olympians

As the 2012 London Olympics is fast approaching, this is also the best time for us to give honor to our past Olympians and hopefully their hardwork and perseverance would served as an inspiration to our future Olumpians. This time we would like to recognized the honor and glory that Tshomlee Go gave to our country.

Tshomlee Cabanos Go born January 13, 1981 in Iriga City, Camarines Sur is a taekwondo practitioner from the Philippines. He represented the country in the 2004 and 2008 Summer Olympics.

In January 2011, two-time Olympian and three-time Southeast Asian Games taekwondo champion Tshomlee Go has decided to call it quits and open a new chapter in his life by marrying his longtime girlfriend in the United States.

It's a hard decision to make, especially when you love the sport very much said Go in a Facebook message. But maybe, that was it for me [so I can] open a new chapter in my life.

Tshomlee is a big loss, experience-wise, but he has done enough for the country, said Philippine Taekwondo Association executive vice president Sun Chong Hong.
