Angarag Sandag is first Maccabiah athlete from Mongolia | Jewish Telegraphic Agency

Angarag Sandag is first Maccabiah athlete from Mongolia | Jewish Telegraphic Agency: "Regardless of what he accomplishes on the tennis court, Angarag Sandag already has made history: He is the first athlete from Mongolia to compete in the Maccabiah Games.
The 20-year-old native of the country’s capital, Ulan Bator, Sandag learned just a year ago that he has Jewish roots. His paternal grandmother told him that her grandmother, Ida, a native of Latvia who later moved to Russia and then Mongolia, was Jewish."
