TrackWrestling began posting a daily international wrestling star feature, starting at the 100 days before the 2018 Senior World Championships, which will be hosted in Budapest, Hungary, October 20-28.
Each day, award-winning journalist Andy Hamilton has posted a profile story of a top contender for a World title this year in Budapest. He started with Iran’s Hassan Yazdanicharati 100 days out, and is now down to 61 days out, with the posting of France star Koumba Larrouque.
If you have noticed, there have been no profiles yet of the top American stars competing in Budapest, but we are told those features will appear as we get closer to the World tournament.
In case you have not been keeping up on these features, we have links to the first 39 days below.
The best way to stay up with this is to check TrackWrestling every day.
