Nizami Imranov will be the highest-ranked judoka at the 2024 World Judo Juniors Championships to be held at the Kasri Tennis Arena in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, from 2 to 6 October 2024 as part of the IJF World Tour.
Idman.biz reports that the list of athletes in all weight classes is headed by the European champion and the silver medalist of the world championship.
This is since Imranov (60 kg) has accumulated rating points based on his results among his peers, but also already has the experience of performing in the elite. In particular, calling Nizami to the 1/16 finals at the Grand Slam held in Tokyo last year earned him 160 points.
World and European junior champion Vusal Galandarzade (73 kg) is among the top five ranked judokas at the World Championship.
