O Antigone Drisbiotis It is John Antetokounmpo will be the standard bearers of Greece in Paris Olympic Games.
Race walking champion Drisbiotis expressed her pride and emotion at the EOE’s decision, stressing that it is the greatest honour for every athlete to carry the flag of their country.
In detail in her message she states:
“The decision of the EOE to appoint me, together with Giannis Antetokounmpo, as flag bearer of the Greek delegation to the Paris Olympic Games, fills me with emotion and pride.
For every athlete, carrying their country’s flag at the opening ceremony of the biggest sporting event in the history of the world is the greatest honor.
In these moments, the dreams, expectations, toils and struggles of a lifetime dedicated to Sport pass through your mind, but immediately the need for preparation takes you to the demands of the days to come.
In Paris, all the children of the Greek Olympic mission, we will do everything in our power so that once again we can raise the Greek colors.”
