Kosovo's first gold, Majlinda Kelmendi ends her judo career

Kosovar athlete Majlinda Kelmendi has ended her judo career. This retreat comes after the Olympic Games "Tokyo 2020", where the athlete could not shine, after being defeated in the first round by the Hungarian judoka, Reka Pupp in the category up to 52 kilograms.

The news was announced by Majlinda Kelmendi herself in a statement for the Kosovar media, which says that the race in Tokyo was the last for her and that she will not continue in other races.

"Maybe this year I was in doubt whether to leave or continue, due to injuries. But at the last moment I decided for Tony's sake to continue, to compete in the Olympics. Unfortunately it did not go well, it is not that I was not in shape, but it was not my day. For me this was the last race, I did not expect that the last race in my career would go like this. It was written, I won it all. I brought a lot of emotions to Kosovo "Many tears are the turn of others. I will be close to Toni to try to extract other talents from Kosovo" , said Kelmendi for KTV.

Majlinda Kelmendi has competed in three Olympics, while in "Rio 2016" she brought Kosovo the first Olympic medal, and the gold one.

The 30-year-old has also won two world titles, as well as a world bronze medal. Meanwhile it has four European golds and one bronze. He has won many Grand Slam and Grand Prix tournaments, as well as one Masters.
