Results from the Pan Am Championships

 

Canada swept the women's singles podium with Li-Zhang-Hoang-Chan

 

Lai won the men's singles title, Nguyen won bronze. Yang went out in the quarterfinals 

 

Dent/Lai won bronze in women's doubles, there were only four teams competing

 

Lee/Lindeman made the final, but got demolished by the US 21-13, 21-8 

 

Both mixed doubles teams went out in the quarterfinals 

 

After this unfortunately I don't see us qualifying in any of the doubles events for LA 2028, although given how the last few years have gone it was always going to be tough.
