note
When asked to define her greatest
weakness and her best quality
Dianne summarized everything in
just one word – stubbornness.
After the Beijing Olympic Games,
in 2008, she went through two
surgeries and came back to
competitions only in 2010. In May,
Daiane was reintegrated to the
Brazilian national team. When her
career ends she wants to work
with handicapped children.
