The Swede shed tears of joy immediately after securing the bronze medal and showed great scenes of joy together with her sister Patricia and other family members.
"So wonderful to share this moment with them. My family from Vilhelmina is here in the stands too," says Kamga.
Kamga had a tough battle with German Shanice Craft and Dutch Alida van Daalen for two medals. The gold went to Jorinde van Klinken, who had already thrown 67.67 on her first attempt in the competition.
Craft recorded 65.72 in the third round, which was enough for silver, and Kamga's 64.61 in the fourth round secured the bronze medal, 39 centimetres further than van Daalen managed this evening.
I've worked like an animal, done everything I can to get some steel around my neck, but now I finally have it. It feels awesome, the bronze girl beams.
The last time Sweden won a women's discus medal was at the 1928 Olympics.
I'm most proud of the way I'm climbing again. I'm so proud. And with some of my best throws of my life.
Caisa-Marie Lindfors, the other Swede in the final, finished seventh with 62.39.
