Taekwondo competitions will kick off on August 8. Arman Yeremyan will start competing on August 10 at 2:45 p.m. Yerevan time.

Yeremyan is the first Armenian taekwondoist to qualify for the Olympics.

“My sole objective is the Olympic gold [medal]. Such tournaments demand maximum concentration of strength from the athletes. Whoever is psychologically better prepared for important competitions becomes the winner. Everyone is equally trained technically in such tournaments.
