For someone who follows judo more closely…Does the Olympic champion in judo always have gold lettering on their back, or is that just a coincidence on Kransniqi’s judo-gi?

 

I haven’t noticed it before, so that’s why I ask.

It was a tough few days for Georgiou :CYP, but at least leaves with a gold :d

 

It’s been a successful few days for team small states :thumbup:

yes, the reigning Olympic Champions always have the golden bib in all the IJF-sanctioned tournaments (and the reigning world champions always have the red bib on their shoulders)...

 

I don't remember if they started this "tradition" after London or Rio? :mumble:
