At the beginning of the year, when I read the statement of the coach of the team and the president of the association, I rubbed my eyes in amazement at what their optimism beat. And today I see that Polish judo is again beginning to mean something internationally.

It seems like the end for Tessie Savelkoul's Olympic dream: her leg was in a very, very weird position and she had to be stretchered off.

It is known that one big tournament is optimistic, but I do not want to blow a balloon too much, because there will be a discussion in my country that Polish judokas must bring a bag of medals from the Olympic Games.

The Dutch head coach has said it's 'most likely the end of her Olympic hopes' (Savelkouls), although it's still not clear exactly what the extent of her injury is. Henk Grol said he mostly just hopes she'll be able to walk normal after this, the team is rather shocked after that horror injury.

this is so sad to hear.. all is left for us for the sake of sport and athleats all around is to hope she will get better and this small chance of going to the olympics will come true she has my prayers!

That is why I prefer not to expect great results, I prefer to be surprised by a good place or medal at the Olympic Games. Already four years ago they were to be the landmark Games, and it came out as usual.

Polish judokas have underperformed greatly over the past 5 Olympics. Zagrodnik got screwed in London outright but other than that Krawczyk was what, 8 seconds from the final in Athens before a complete brain freeze and Katarzyna Kłys could never find her mojo when it really mattered. I never had much faith in Wilkomirski to begin with but it has to be said judo is probably the biggest Polish disappointement among Olympic sports in the XXI century (along with boxing but everyone wants to go pro there so the expectations are much lower).

2020 Grand Slam (Paris, FRA)

 

Tournament Recap

 

Paris GS tournament is always the most star-filled event of the year...and this season it made no exception...

 

So, we have among the winners a lot of world and Olympic champions and medallists, with Europe keeping up with the mighty Asians, even more than expected (actually, we only have Asian domination in the men's low weight classes and 1 single win in the whole women's division)...

 

but the real shocking news of the week is certainly :FRA Teddy Riner's first loss since 9 years and 154+ bouts...:yikes:

 

despite that, :FRA France were still the dominating force in the home tournament, with their women capable of winning 3 Gold Medals...

 

only :JPN Japan could win the same amount of Gold Medals, thanks to their lightweights men and to Yoko Ono in the womnen's -63kg...

 

here are this year's Paris Grand Slam tournament Champions:

 

women
-48kg: :UKR Daria Bilodid
-52kg: :KOS Distria Krasniqi
-57kg: :CAN Christa Deguchi
-63kg: :FRA Clarisse Agbegnenou
-70kg: :JPN Yoko Ono
-78kg: :FRA Madeleine Malonga
+78kg: :FRA Romane Dicko


men
-60kg: :JPN Ryuju Nagayama
-66kg: :KOR An Baul
-73kg: :JPN Soichi Hashimoto
-81kg: :BEL Matthias Casse
-90kg: :ESP Nikoloz Sherazadishvili
-100kg: :ISR Peter Paltchik
+100kg: :NED Henk Grol

2020 Grand Slam (Düsseldorf, GER)

 

Day #1 Recap

 

:JPN Japan entered this week's tournament with a very strong team, featuring some of their best fighters, who are going to represent their team in Tokyo...

 

and this immediately evident when we look at day #1's results, where 3 out of 5 contested weight classes were won by a Japanese Judo player...

 

the 2 men's titles up for grabs in yesterday's schedule, in fact, went to :JPN Naohisa Takato (-60kg) and :JPN Hifumi Abe (-66kg), meanwhile in the women's division :JPN Uta Abe (Hifumi's sister, -52kg) completed the Japanese bonanza...

 

the remaining 2 women's Gold Medals instead went to :FRA France (Shirine Boukli, -48kg) and :CAN Canada (Jessica Klimkait, -57kg)...

      Fencing FIE World Cup 2024 - 2025

      By copravolley · Posted

      I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.

      Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't.

      Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.

      Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.

      No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal.

      Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?

      Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.

      No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
