Coming so soon after the IJF World Championships, a modest field showed up for the Tashkent Grand Prix, with Russia claiming seven medals (5-2-0) for top honors. The hosts from Uzbekistan had a good showing, also with seven medals, but with two golds (2-3-2).
The lone no. 1-ranked fighter in the field, Georgia’s Guram Tushishvili (+100 kg World Champion in 2018), won his division, defeating Belmurod Oltiboev (UZB) by ippon in the final. Summaries:
