Biography
Marta Tibor was born on June 7, 1983 in the city of Sombor, autonomous region of Vojvodina , Yugoslavia , and is of Hungarian origin.
The first serious success at the adult international level was in the 2007 season, when she joined the main squad of the Serbian national team and attended the World Championships in Duisburg, Germany, from where she brought the bronze dignity award, won together with such rowers as Milyana Knezhevich , Antonia Panda and Renata Kubik in the standings of four-seater kayaks at a distance of 200 meters - in the final they were passed only by crews from Germany and Hungary. A year later, in the same lineup, they performed at the European Championships in Milan, where they again became bronze medalists in the same discipline - this time, teams from Hungary and Russia were let forward. However, the four-hundred-meter discipline of the fours was not included in the program of the Olympic Games, so they did not get to the Beijing Olympics.
Thanks to a series of successful performances, Marta Tibor won the right to defend the country's honor at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London , as part of a four-seater crew with Anthony Panda, Renata Kubik and Anthony Naj . They started here at a distance of 500 meters - from fifth place they qualified at the preliminary stage, but at the stage of semi-finals they took only the penultimate seventh place and thus could not get into the final stage of the competition (they became tenths in the final protocol of the regatta). Soon after the end of this Olympics, Tibor decided to end the career of a professional athlete, losing her place in the national team to young Serbian rowers.
