Nico Polychronidis says that he is proud to be the first athlete from Greece to compete in ski jumping at the Olympics.

Nico Polychronidis believes that people in Greece are now interested in ski jumping because of his participation in the category at the Winter Olympics in Sochi.

The 24-year-old, who was born in the German city of Bremen, is the first Greek ever to compete in the sport.

"A lot of people in Greece are now interested in ski jumping," he told reporters. "The people in the Greek Olympic Committee were happy to accept me."

Polychronidis's father is from Greece, and his mother is German.
