İspanya'nın Barcelona kentinde devam eden 20. Avrupa Atletizm Şampiyonası'nda, bayanlar 100 metre engelli finalinde milli atlet Nevin Yanıt 12.63 derecesiyle birinci olarak Avrupa Şampiyonu oldu ve Türkiye'ye altın madalya kazandırdı. Aynı zamanda Türkiye rekorunu aynı gün içinde 2. kez kırdı.

Yanit won her first major gold with a Turkish-best sprint of 12.63 seconds, which is the same number of her hotel room and the last four digits of her mobile phone number _ "it was like an omen for victory," she said.

Yanit's phone also rang soon after the win at Barcelona's Olympic Stadium as Turkey Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan called to congratulate her after the emotional victory.

"I cannot believe what happened _ it is crazy," she said. "In 2006 in Goteborg (Sweden), I dreamt about a gold medal and tonight I am European champion."
