Borchashvili wanted to compete at the 2022 Judo World Masters in Jerusalem without the coach. Since this was deemed unacceptable by the Austrian Judo Federation, his registration for the tournament was withdrawn for disciplinary reasons.[10]

Although he managed to qualify for the 2024 Summer Olympics he decided not to start and was replaced with his brother Wachid Borchashvili.[11][12]
