The judo is a popular sport which people engaged in more than 178 countries at any age in the world. Besides its popularity, the studies on this field continue to increase gradually. The purpose of this study, therefore, is to measure pre-competition anxieties, and to evaluate data obtained of the pre-competition concerns of the judo athletes who participated in the IJF Grand Prix competition, Samsun 2015 in Turkey. The questionnaires of the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-2) were asked the Judo athletes who participated in the IJF Grand Prix Competition prior to the 31 to 59 minutes before the competition. There were no significant differences between countries and between Turkey and other countries with each other. Quantitative variables were analyzed according to sex. No significant difference was found between sub-dimensions (somatic anxiety, cognitive anxiety, self-confidence) in Section I and Section II (p-value < 0.05). Considering the correlation between sub-dimensions of the countries, no significant difference was found between them (p-value < 0.05).
