Fadhila Louati

Fadhila Louati (Arabic: فضيلة لواتي; born March 3, 1979, in Tunis) is a retired amateur Tunisian freestyle wrestler, who competed in the women's flyweight category.

[citation needed] When Tunisia hosted the 2001 Mediterranean Games in Tunis, Louati emerged herself into a sporting fame, as she beat Greece's Agora Papavasiliou for the gold medal in the 46-kg division.

[2] Following her immediate sporting success, Louati went on to produce another boastful victory for the Tunisians for the women's flyweight title at the 2003 All-Africa Games in Abuja, Nigeria.

Earlier in the process, she placed fourth from the Olympic Qualification Tournament in Madrid, Spain, but managed to fill up an entry by the International Federation of Association Wrestling through a tripartite invitation.

[4][5] Louati lost two matches each to Greece's Fani Psatha and Tajikistan's Lidiya Karamchakova on technical fall, and was immediately halted by eventual Olympic champion Irini Merleni of Ukraine before reaching the two-minute mark due to a 10-point superiority rule, leaving her on the bottom of the prelim pool and placing last out of fourteen wrestlers in the final standings.
