There are 14 days left until the start of the Paris 2024 Summer Olympic Games on July 26.
İdman.biz continues its series of articles dedicated to the most prestigious multi-sport competition of the four-year period, which will begin on Friday in 2 weeks.
First of all, we recalled the Summer Olympics, in which Azerbaijani athletes participated in the years of independence until Paris 2024. Then we looked at the collection of awards, the participation of our team, and also, looking at the list of several medalists, we met those who have repeatedly experienced this excitement.
This time we will look at the Olympic history of our 48 athletes who won a license for Paris 2024 under the flag of Azerbaijan. Let’s also see which of our athletes are Olympic debutants.
