- The Russian national judo team became the winner of the medal standings of the Grand Slam tournament
On December 1, Russian athletes took first place in the medal standings of the Grand Slam tournament in Abu Dhabi, which became the first international start after the decision of the Executive Committee of the International Judo Federation to return the team the right to compete under its flag.
The national team performed not in a neutral status, but under the official symbols of the country, winning and beating the teams of Great Britain and Mongolia.
The Russian athletes won six awards: two gold and four silver. Ayub Bliev and Arman Adamyan became the champions of their weight categories.
On November 27, the Executive Committee of the International Judo Federation returned to Russian athletes the right to compete in international tournaments under the national flag. It was noted at the time that the decision reflects the IJF's confidence in "ethical guarantees" and promotes respect, solidarity and peace.
