The Tokyo Olympics has been riddled with controversy before they even began, and most recently, the criticism turned to a male judo coach who shook and slapped a female athlete on the face before she entered the ring. Ahead of German judo player Martyna Trajdos' big face-off against Hungary on July 27, her coach, Claudiu Pusa, was captured shaking her by the collar and slapping her cheeks. Trajdos appeared unfazed, nodded, and stepped into the ring after the interaction, but the moment soon went viral with Pusa's approach facing serious criticism, including from judo officials. Trajdos, however, had a very different reaction. Read on to find out what the Olympian had to say about the slap heard 'round the world.
Trajdos, 32, took to social media following Tuesday's competition to explain that her coach's approach is part of their pre-match ritual to help "fire [her] up."
She posted on her Instagram Story, according to Today, "This is what I asked my coach to do! So please don't blame him!!! I need this before my fights to be awake."
