Career Highlights: After becoming the first Canadian to ever win Olympic silver in taekwondo at the Beijing Games, Sergerie heads to London looking to tack on to her legacy.

Besides her silver in Beijing, Sergerie's resume includes a first-place finish at the 2007 world championships, a second-place finish at the 2003 worlds and third-place finishes at the 2005 and '11 worlds. She also won gold at the 2009 Paris Open, 2010 German and Dutch Opens, and the 2010 Pan American championships.
