Nino Salukvadze

Nino Salukvadze (; born 1 February 1969, in Tbilisi) is a Georgian sport shooter. She is a ten-time Olympian, the record for appearances by a female athlete and tying Canadian showjumper Ian Millar for the most for any athlete. Salukvadze has won medals on three occasions, while competing on three different Olympic teams – for the Soviet Union in 1988, then the Unified Team at Barcelona in 1992 after the collapse of the Soviet Union, and lastly for Georgia beginning in 1996. And ahead of her record-breaking appearance, Salukvadze was given the honor of being one of Georgia's flag bearers for the 2020 Summer Olympics Opening Ceremony, for the second time.

2024 Summer Olympics Nino competed in her tenth Olympic Games at age 55, at the shooting at the 2024 Summer Olympics, becoming the first female athlete in history to do so; she competed in the women’s 10m air pistol and 25m pistol events.
