We extract two-photon exchange amplitudes for the elastic electron-proton scattering at Q^2=2.5 GeV^2 from the unpolarized cross-section and recent polarization transfer measurements. There are three independent amplitudes, but only one of them, \delta G_M, can be determined with a reasonable accuracy(about 10%). The result is in good agreement with theoretical predictions. Rough estimates for two other amplitudes are obtained.
