Early life

Career

The political climate in Libya presented some obstacles to Hagul's competitive swimming career. In Libya, women are discouraged from wearing swimwear in public, making female competitive swimmers rare but not unprecedented.^[3] Following political upheaval in 2011, the Libyan Swimming Federation and Libyan Olympic Committee have struggled with funding.^[3]^[8] Swimming pools and clubs also became scarce in Libya after 2011. In spite of the challenges she faced, Hagul qualified for the FINA World Swimming Championships 2015 in Kazan, Russia where she competed in the 100 metre and the 50 metre breaststroke events.^[1]^[2] Hagul achieved a personal best time of 1:28.59 in the 100 metre breaststroke.^[2]^[4] She placed 68th in the event.^[4]

After her national swimming federation was not able to finance Hagul's trip to Rio de Janeiro for the Olympics.^[3]^[8] To finance the trip, Hagul turned to a crowdfunding campaign which proved successful.^[3]^[5] Hagul was the only woman to compete for Libya at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.^[3] She competed at the 2016 Summer Olympics in the women's 100 metre breaststroke event; her time of 1:25.47 in the heats did not qualify her for the semifinals.^[6]^[7]
