Today, three representatives of the Uzbek national team in kayaking and canoeing and taekwondo will compete for Tokyo 2020 licenses.

It should be noted that in this direction, the athlete who won the 1st place has a chance to be awarded the Tokyo 2020 license.
Also, a licensed taekwondo tournament for the Asian continent starts today in Jordan. Within the framework of this day, two Uzbek taekwondo athletes — Nigora Tursunkulova (-67 kg) and Ulugbek Rashitov (-68 kg) will go to dayan.
