"I am really honoured, but I would rather be the one who will carry the flag at the closing ceremony, because that duty will go to the athlete who achieves the best result at the Games," said Mekic.
"Vrlo sam počastvovan, ali bih radije bio onaj ko će nositi zastavu na svečanom zatvaranju, jer će to biti dužnost onog sportiste koji ostvari najbolji rezultat na igrama", kaže Mekić.
