Hopefully Leylah and Dabrowski ream up and might be a dark horse for a medal

Exactly and without shapo, Felix will only be playing two events instead of three so it will lighten his load

Ana Laura Portuondo Isasi has officially qualified for Paris in judo (women’s +78kg) with a team invitational quota through the Olympic Rankings!

First time in history that Canada will be present in the Olympic mixed team event!

 

Edit: Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope. Calculations were wrong 

So, another update on this. Looks like she’ll qualify after all. 
 

Also, Kelly Deguchi has officially qualified for Paris. Would’ve preferred Frascadore, but it is what it is

So that means Canada will take part in the team event? I don't always have the time to watch all of judo, but the team event was fun to watch in Tokyo.

Yes, that’s correct. Only judo I’ll be watching is if any Canadians make the medal matches. Otherwise I’m prioritizing other sports.

Great news. Yes, that's usually how I do it with the combat sports. Now with Canada with so many chances in swimming/athletics (and even gymnastics) it'll be a busy two weeks. Add in all the other Canadian chances and sports I just enjoy watching. And my job is cruelly making me go back to work during the Olympics.
