Order of Rising Sun ceremony for Egyptian judoka

Mohamed Ali Rashwan (L), silver medalist in the men's open class category at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, receives Japan's spring 2019 Order of the Rising Sun decoration from Japanese Ambassador to Egypt Masaki Noke in Cairo on Oct. 28, 2019. In the 1984 Games, the Egyptian lost the finals to Japan's Yasuhiro Yamashita, who tore a calf muscle in the preliminaries, after he did not aim for the injured leg -- an action that earned him international applause for his fair play.
