Ilia Sulamanidze, one of the leaders of the Georgian judo team, will be competing in Baku.
The 23-year-old athlete will take part in the Grand Slam tournament, which will be held at the National Gymnastics Arena from February 14-16, Idman.biz reports.
Sulamanidze will be the only judoka from the current Georgian squad to have competed in the Olympics. He won a silver medal at the Paris 2024 Olympics, losing to Azerbaijani representative Zelym Kotsoiev in the final.
A total of seven athletes will represent Georgia’s men’s judo team at the tournament.
Sulamanidze was the winner of the Grand Slam tournament held in Baku last year.
