Krasniqi is returning with a change in the category, where after several years she will compete at minus 52kg, in contrast with the category -48kg in which she became Olympic champion.
Our Judis is the only one from the Kosovo Judo team to compete in Baku's Grand Slam, which is held November 5th-7th in Azerbaijan's capital.
I've come to compete in -52kg. It's the category that suits me best”, Krasniqi says of the official website of the Judo International Federation (ijf.org). In the question of what she was doing so far in the category -48kg, she answers: “was somewhat like a commando operation, a short-term strategy to win Olympic gold”.
Krasniqi in the first war will face Japan's Nanako Tsubone, while Hungarian Reka Pupp awaits in the second round.
We wish our champion luck and success on the way to the medal.
