On Sunday, Papua New Guinea's Rellie Kaputin will realise her dream of representing her country at the Olympics when she competes in the women's long jump at 12.50pm NZT.
"During my childhood, I've been inspired by a lot of people, but the one person that inspired me the most was my uncle. He represented PNG in one of the Commonwealth Games and watching him growing up gave me the drive to hopefully be like him one day and represent my country," she said.
