Zoe Turnes (born July 26, 2000 in Buenos Aires ) is an Argentine handball player who is particularly successful in the beach handball variant .
Career
Zoe Turnes lives in La Boca . She plays for Sociedad Escolar y Deportiva Alemana Lanús Oeste (SEDALO), a club in which Caterina Benedetti was trained at the same time . She plays in the left wing position, alternatively in beach handball as a circle runner .
Benedetti is a junior national player for the Argentine national handball team. At the Pan American Junior Championships 2018 in Buenos Aires, she won the bronze medal after victories against Uruguay, Peru and Paraguay as well as defeats against Brazil and Chile. Against Uruguay, Turnes was the team's most successful goalscorer with five goals together with Caterina Benedetti.
Turnes initially belonged to the Argentine national youth team in beach handball. With this she took part in the first Pan American Beach Handball Junior Championships 2017 (U 17) and won the title with her team. It was also the qualification for the Beach Handball Junior World Championships 2017 in Flic-en-Flac on Mauritius . With her team she beat Paraguay and Croatia in the preliminary round, but lost to Hungary. Argentina beat Taiwan in the main round, then lost to the Netherlands. As third in the main round, she moved into the quarter-finals with Argentina, where China was initially defeated. In the semifinals they again lost to the Netherlands, in the game for third place they managed to win over Portugal and thus win the bronze medal. A year later, the 2018 Summer Youth Olympic Games in her home city of Buenos Aires were the highlight of the season. Beach handball replaced indoor handball for the first time and was Olympic for the first time. During the year Turnes took part in four game trips to Brazil in preparation. In the preliminary round they beat the teams from Turkey, Paraguay, Venezuela and Hong Kong. Only the last group game, again against the Netherlands, was lost. While the games in the preliminary round were always clear issues, they became tighter in the main round, with all three games going into the shootout. After beating Croatia, they lost to the team from Hungary and then won very close against Taiwan. As the third-placed team in the main round, they faced one of the two feared opponents Hungary. Although the Hungarians even scored one point more, the Argentines happily won a hard-fought game in the shootout. In the final, the Argentines met Croatia again and defeated them with 2-0 sets. Turnes won the first Olympic gold medal in beach handball with Argentina. As a goalscorer, she rarely appeared, she was primarily used in defense. In total, she contributed 18 points in ten games.
Then moved Turnes together with her long-time fellow activists in the Junior Women's National Team Carolina Ponce , Caterina Benedetti , Fiorella Corimberto and Gisella Bonomi in the Beach Handball senior team of Argentina on. The first international championships were the South American Beach Games 2019 in Rosario . In the preliminary round, Paraguay , Chile and Peru were beaten and the Argentines went to the semi-finals as first in the table. There Venezuela was defeated 2-0. In the final, Brazil played one of the strongest teams in the world. The final was fiercely competitive and continued right up to the shootout. It was her first international women's title. As the year progressed, Turnes was also part of the Argentine squad for the Central and South American Beach Handball Championships in Maricá in Brazil in 2019 . With Gisella Bonomi, Fiorella Corimberto, Lucila Balsas and Zoe Turnes, half of the team was recruited from players who had won gold at the Youth Olympic Games. In the qualifying round, the representatives from Paraguay and Chile were beaten, against the Uruguayan teams and the hosts lost the Argentine team. As the third of the qualifying round they reached the semi-finals, in which Uruguay was beaten this time in the shootout. In the final, Brazil was clearly defeated, but qualified for the World Beach Games 2019 in Qatar , as Brazil was already qualified due to its placement at the last World Cup. Here Turnes played a very good main round with Argentina, in which not only the USA and Tunisia but also the world-class teams from Denmark and Hungary were beaten. Only Brazil had to admit defeat again. In the quarter-finals Argentina had to admit defeat to the surprisingly strong team from Vietnam . In the placement games, Argentina then clearly defeated the reigning world champions Greece , then lost to Poland in the game for fifth place and came in sixth.
In February 2019, Turnes and her team ACHA de Mar del Plata , which also included all the other gold medalists of the Youth Olympic Games, Gisella Bonomi, Rosario Soto , Carolina Ponce, Fiorella Corimberto, Lucila Balsas, Belén Aizen , Caterina Benedetti and Jimena Riadigos , won the Title in the first ever Argentine beach handball summer tour. They were trained by their coach in the Argentine U-national team Leticia Brunati . At the end of 2019, Turnes took part in the finals of the Brazilian beach handball tour as a guest player for the APCEF club from Paraíba and finished in fifth place. Together with her national team colleagues Agustina Mamet , María Florencia Allende , Soto, Balsas, Benedetti and the sisters Fiorella and Micaela Corimberto , she won the IFES Fly Summer Cup in Montevideo in January 2020 .
