Georgia celebrated a landmark moment in its sporting history as Anastasia Metelkina and Luka Berulava claimed the nation’s first ever medal at the Winter Olympic Games with silver in the pairs figure skating event at Milano Cortina 2026, İdman.Biz reports.
The final took place on 16 February in Milan, where the Georgian duo scored 221.75 points overall, finishing second in both the short programme and the free skate. They received 75.46 in the short and 146.29 in the free programme to secure a historic podium place.
