A high school girl from Kosovo grabbed a ticket to participate in the Beijing Winter Olympics. This is the first time that a female athlete from Kosovo will participate in the Winter Olympics. “The Olympics were my dream.” “I’ll do my best.” Alpine skier Kiana Kreziu (17) expressed her enthusiasm.
Born in Pristina, the capital. I started skiing at the age of four or five, and I became so fond of it that I was looking forward to skiing all year long and waiting for winter.
One of the motivations for aiming for the Olympics was the success of Majlinda Kelmendi (30), who won the first gold medal in Kosovo at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympics Judo Women’s 52 kg class. “I was still a kid, but I was greatly influenced,” he said. (Joint)
