Hundreds of youngsters in the Kosovan town of Peja are looking forward to watching the 2021 Tokyo Olympics and hoping that their hero Majlinda Kelmendi will win the country's second Olympics gold medal in judo. Kelmendi, aged 30, became an inspiration for many in Kosovo, which has suffered years of warfare, when she started to bring back trophies to her hometown. After becoming the best world judo player in her 52 kg category she won the gold medal in Rio 2016 Olympics.
