Ruby White, the 19-year-old boxing prodigy, made a stunning impact at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, claiming a silver medal in the women's 51kg category. Despite her impressive unbeaten record of 71 fights, White fell short against India's Sakshi Chaudhary, suffering a 5-0 defeat in the final. However, White remains determined and focused on exacting revenge in future encounters, stating, 'I want to get my revenge when I'm more experienced in the senior ranks.' White acknowledges that she was underprepared for the high-pressure bout, her first multi-sport games and senior tournament.
She reflects on the tournament, 'I had four very good fights and lost out on the finals, but to look back on it, being 19 and to go to the Commonwealth Games after only being selected for GB a couple of months prior, and to come back with silver in my first major tournament, it's amazing.' White's journey to the top has just begun, and she is already making waves in British boxing, catching the attention of notable figures such as two-time Olympic gold medalist Nicola Adams. With her sights set on the 2028 Olympics, White is more determined than ever to bring home the gold for Team GB.
