FWIW Christa Deguchi confirmed in an interview w/ Radio-Canada that she’s committed through Paris 2024 at least. She mentions that she took a few months off training after failing to qualify for the Olympics but that her love for the sport has come back.

 

Good luck, She makes a mistake to stay 57kg category with Jessica Klimkait ...

She's quite capable in defeating Klimkait on any given day. Going up or down a weightclass isn't easy either plus the -63kg also has a great athlete while the -52kg has her sister

According to the last entry update for the next two IJF World Tour events (Hungary GS / Zagreb GP) 
 

Christa will not participate in the GrandSlam Hungary, she was before this week's update, but she will participate in the Grand Prix Zagreb. 
 

For me Christa is B Plan, It will be VERY difficult for Duguchi to qualify in the -57kg if Klimkait have no major injury.

Klimkait is  more constant than Deguchi since last 3 Years.
