Grigori Mamrikishvili (also Grigol Mamrikishvili, Georgian: გრიგოლ მამრიკიშვილი; born 2 March 1981 in Tbilisi, Georgian SSR) is a Georgian judoka, who competed in the men's half-middleweight category.[1] He picked up a total of ten medals in his career, including four from the World Judo Cup series and a bronze from the 2003 European U23 Championships in Nabeul, Tunisia, and represented his nation Georgia at the 2004 Summer Olympics, competing in the ‍–‍81 kg class.[2]

Mamrikishvili qualified for the Georgian squad in the men's half-middleweight category (81 kg) at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, by topping the field of judoka and granting a berth from the A-Tournament in his native Tbilisi.[3] He lost his opening match to an experienced Estonian judoka and 2000 Olympic bronze medalist Aleksei Budõlin, who tossed him to the tatami for a waza-ari and an additional yuko point to close the five-minute bout.[4][5]
