I'll take this.

Lead

"She has also played the national team, winning a silver medal...", missing 'for' in between 'played' and 'the'.

"She retired soon afterwards, but staged a comeback in 2011, rejoining the national team, which went on to win the European championships, and then won a gold medal at the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London, for which president Joachim Gauck awarded the team Germany's highest sporting honour, the Silbernes Lorbeerblatt (Silver Laurel Leaf)." sentence is far too long and tenses change. Remove 'won' in 'won a gold medal at the 2012...", and full stop after London. The president awarding the team a medal could be a seperate sentence.

"which it lost to the United States", which they lost.
- Y Done. Hawkeye7 (talk)
"Tuna was bitter about the defeat", who is Tuna? There is no previous introduction given to the reader.
- Y Somebody changed it. She was Britt Tuna until she married. A hazard of female biographies.

"She would live with the pain of the defeat for the next 24 years", it would be nice if there was a quote (translated from German of course), to support this as standalone it reads journalse.
- So habe ihr diese Niederlage noch über Jahre nachgehangen, sagt sie. "I indulged in this defeat for many years she said". The better quote follows, about London: "Das hat mich versöhnt mit Seoul "This has reconciled me with Seoul".
"But in the Summer of 2009", summer lowercase

"Her debut game with the seconds", unfamiliar with seconds. Is this a basketball terminology?
- Y No, it is a sporting term. Clubs often field more than one side. There is a top side, and then one that is usually known as the seconds or the reserves. Added a link.

"a team that had defeated them 48–46 in Sydney just a few months before.[11] They defeated the Australians 44–58 in front...", repetition. Suggest you could replace 'defeated' with 'beat' in one of the sentences, preferably the second one.
"For Dillmann, the gold medal victory removed the pain of the loss in Seoul", again quote to liven this entry would be nice.
