A two-time Olympian, Delgado competed at both the 2016 and 2020 Olympic Games. The three-time Grand Slam medalist recently won her ninth Senior Pan American-Oceania Championship medal with a silver in April in Rio de Janeiro – the site of her first Olympic Games. Delgado was introduced to the sport by her father, Miguel Delgado, a former member of the Cuba National Team, who fled Cuba in the 1980s and made his way to Miami where he counted his old judo gi as one of the few possessions he took with him to America. "Without him, I would’ve never put on a gi. My father was on the National Cuban Team for judo and when I was nine years old he began to teach me in the backyard of our house.” Although Delgado says qualifying for the Olympic Games twice was the highlight of her career so far, she also notes that her favorite judo moment is "Anytime I overcome adversity. It reaffirms my purpose to be the best. Also, the moment I step on the mat and everything becomes quiet and I become hyper-focused and aware.”
Delgado, who graduated from Florida International University with a Bachelor's degree in psychology in 2021, married her former Senior World teammate, Alex Turner, in September of 2022. The 11-time Senior World Team member holds three podium finishes at Grand Slam tournaments as well as five Grand Prix medals.
