Three-time European judo champion Hidayat Heydarov (73 kg) is among the first "four" in terms of the number of prizes won in the Grand Slam in the last year.
Idman.biz reports that 3 successful performances of our judoka in this serial competition formalized the decision at this stage.
Heydarov, who won a gold medal in Baku and Tokyo and a bronze medal in Antalya, is behind only Inal Tasoev (3-0-1), Matvey Kanikovskiy (2-1-0) and Tamerlan Bashaev (2-0-2).
It should be noted that Ryuju Nagayama and Iliya Sulamanidze, who are the leaders of the world ranking in their weight class (both have 2 gold awards), are next to our judoka in the list.
