Tato has everything ahead of him and I am sure he will become an Olympic champion at the next Olympics.At the age of 24, Lasha Bekauri is already a legend of Georgian judo and Georgian sports in general. I am sure that Lasha will fully fulfill the promise made 3 years ago and will win the third Olympic gold in 4 years.

23-year-old Ilia Sulamanidze achieved the greatest success at the very first Olympic Games, he won a silver medal, and the Georgian Olympic team won the third medal. Bigger victories, including at the next Olympic Games, await Ilya. I wish success to our Olympians. I am sure that there are many more victories ahead of us”, - reads the congratulatory letter.
