What a difference a year makes! Last year, Israel’s victorious judokas had to sing their own national anthem. This year, however, Hatikvah was played in Abu Dhabi for the first time ever. A sliver of light amidst the gloom.
A glimmer of joy amidst today's gloom, as Israel's national anthem, Hatikvah, plays in Abu Dhabi for the first time ever after Israel's Sagi Muki wins gold at the Abu Dhabi Judo Grand Slam. 🇮🇱🥇🇦🇪 #JudoAbuDhabi2018 pic.twitter.com/DRKCAez91T
