Obituary

Saudi history maker Al-Ghamdi passes away in car accident

By United World Wrestling Press

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (March 8) --- It is with great sorrow that United World Wrestling has learned of the passing passes of Abdul Aziz Fahd AL-GHAMDI (SKA), a prominent athlete of the Saudi National Wrestling team, who was killed in a tragic traffic accident.

Al-Ghamdi, at 19, showcased his exceptional talent and unwavering determination on the wrestling mat, winning a gold medal at the 2022 U17 Arab Championships. However, his most remarkable career feat came in 2019 when he clinched a bronze medal at the U15 Asian Championship, becoming Saudi Arabia’s first-ever Asian medalist in wrestling.

His absence will leave a void in the wrestling world—especially in the Saudi wrestling community. United World Wrestling offers its condolences to Abdul Aziz Fahd Al-Ghamdi's family, friends, teammates, and all those whose lives he touched.
