Mexican Olympic Medal Winners Awarded with Houses

Mexican medal winners at the Olympic Games on Tuesday received the first recognition to their triumph, when receiving a letter from a house construction company which has promised to award each of them a house.

Divers Paola Espinoza and Tatiana Ortiz (bronze medalist at the synchronized diving), taekwondo fighters Maria Espinosa and Guillermo Perez (gold) and coach Jose Luis Onofre received the letter.

The letter didn't mention location, size or price of the houses, because the company Homex, will ask the athletes to decide where they want it.
