Eva Salvadori

Eva Salvadori will carry the Olympic Torch. This is her story:

Eva hopes to represent France at the Olympic Games, an opportunity she sees as a unique chance to promote sport as a whole. For her, this is the ultimate reward for her unconventional judo career. After taking a break from the sport at the age of 7, she rediscovered it at the age of 15, because its mentality appealed to her.

In just four years, she managed to catch up on her belts and finally achieve the prestigious rank of black belt. On four occasions, she proudly represented her club, which has 136 members, in national competitions. Carrying the Olympic Torch will be another opportunity for her to showcase her club, paying tribute to the dedicated coaches who work tirelessly to propel their athletes to new heights.
