Ilgar Yasharovich Mammadov (also spelled Mamedov, Template:Lang-ru, Template:Lang-az; born 15 November 1965 in Baku, Azerbaijan SSR) is a Soviet and Russian fencer of Azerbaijani origin.[1] Two-time Olympic and world champion in team foil, he currently serves as President of the Russian Fencing Federation.

Career

Having competed in four Olympic Games in 19882000, Mammadov won two Olympic gold medals in the team foil competition, at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul and at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta.[2][3]

After retiring from competition, Mammadov became a fencing master and referee. In 2008, he became the Russian representative to the Refereeing Commission of the International Fencing Federation (FIE). He was appointed director of fencing in the Russian Fencing Federation[4] after Vladislav Pavlovich's resignation following the 2012 Summer Olympics.[5] In 2013, he was inducted into the FIE's Hall of Fame.[6]

Mammadov graduated from the Baku State University. He married World and European champion fencer Yelena Jemayeva. They live in Moscow and have two daughters: Milena and Ayla.[7]

In 2023, Mammadov lashed out at the International Olympic Committee's (IOC) proposal to allow Russian athletes to-enter the international competition only as neutrals following their suspension a year earlier due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, considering any restrictions unfair and humiliating.[8]

With these conditions of the IOC, there's no hope of going to the Paris Olympics. You need to sell your soul to the devil and go to Paris, or remain a normal person.

Even if the World Cup competitions are transferred from countries that refuse to organize tournaments [because of Russia's participation], we still will not be able to get to these places.

The conditions of our admission are such that they are simply unacceptable.
