Head coach of the Armenian team Gevorg Davtyan has told Mediamax Sport that two weightlifters are to represent the country in Las Vegas: Gevorg Ghahramanyan (81kg) and Garik Karapetyan (89kg).

“We selected the athletes based on the results they had in the national championship. Additionally, they are the main medal favorites,” he said.

The team will train in Tsaghkadzor until February 7 and start a training camp in Olympavan after a three-day break.
