“I had a very good day today and I had good feeling for judo today. I am fully satisfied. In the final, even thought I was down by a yuko, I felt that once I get the right kumikata I will be able to score even higher than a yuko. I am also happy that I managed to work on my ne-waza too, it is nice as it changes up my figths.” |

“I am very happy, especially because we had four German athletes in the semis, so to come out on top it is very satisfying. My first three fights were not convincing at all but during the rest of the fights I managed to score by throwing. I was really pleased with both of my uchi-mata I did in the final.” |

“As I mentioned in Rome in February, I changed my trainings and the way of thinking and I believe this is what allows me to strive forward and I want more. Hopefully, now I can go for some of the Grand Prix tournament, which excites me even more. My view is on Tokyo and if I carry on the trainings I am doing now, I know I will be able to make myself proud in four years time.” |

“We had really good trainings with the Russian team and now I have the result of it. Everything was good today, my judo, my team and the organisation too. For me the final was good becuase I knew that Alim was left sided and that perfectly fits my right sided judo.” |
