Distria Krasniqi continues to bring glory to the state of Kosovo, securing this time the first medal for our country at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, her second medal, this time silver, after winning gold in Tokyo 2020.

Our judoka becomes the first athlete to win two medals at the Olympic Games, and in two different categories. For her coach, Driton Kuka, it is the fourth medal, with three golds and one silver.

The state of Kosovo is the country in the region that rewards athletes who bring home medals from the Olympic Games the most generously.

The gold medal from the Olympic Games is rewarded with a sum of 100 thousand euros, silver with 60 thousand, and bronze with 40 thousand euros.

As the winner of the silver medal at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, Distria Krasniqi is entitled to 60 thousand euros.

Coaches receive half the amount athletes earn this time: 30 thousand euros.

Kosovo has so far won one medal at the “Paris 2024” Olympic Games, while it is also aiming for others in judo, as well as in boxing with Donjeta Sadiku.
