Anna-Lena Frömming (born 18 February 1995) is a German taekwondo athlete.

Career

[edit]

Anna-Lena Frömming began practising the Korean martial art of taekwondo in 2001.[1] In 2007, she was runner-up in the European Cadet Championships in Budapest, and in 2009 she again achieved a European medal, winning a bronze at the European Junior Championships in Trelleborg. In 2011, she became European Junior Champion in the 55 kg weight class in Paphos.[2]

In 2012, Frömming won a bronze medal in the same category at the World Junior Championships in Sharm El-Sheikh. She won two more bronze medals at the 2013 and 2014 European Under-21 Championships in Chișinău and Innsbruck.[2]

In the senior category, she won bronze in the weight class up to 57 kg at the 2013 World Taekwondo Championships in Puebla.[3][4] In 2015, Frömming took part in the European Games and the Universiade.[5] This was followed by podium places at the Military World Games, a silver medal in 2015 in Mungyeong and a bronze medal in 2019 in Wuhan. In 2017, Frömming took part in the Universiade for a second time, before winning bronze at the 2018 World Military Championships in Rio de Janeiro.[6][7]

In 2016, Frömming took part in the European qualifying tournament for the Olympic Games to be held in Rio de Janeiro, where she achieved a third place and was therefore unable to qualify for a quota place for the Olympic competition.[8] At the 2021 Women's Taekwondo World Championships in Riyadh, she won a bronze medal in the 62 kg category. Due to a metacarpal fracture, Frömming had to take a break for several months in 2023 and finished 9th at the World Championships in Baku in the same year.[9][10] She also took part in the European Games for a second time in 2023.[2]
