One of the surfers who tested positive was the Brazilian Silvana Lima.

That's weird.... because Johanne was on France team list https://isasurf.org/event/world-surfing-games/?team-id=2017

 

But she is not appearing on heats drawn... She needed to compete on this event, do you know what happened?

 

Even though France still can qualify with Pauline Ado if she competes.

Thanks. Looks they will test them again and try to put them on the competition.

 

I found out a statement from Johanne. She missed this event by a medical decision... I believe she will not have any problem about it.

I realized that kiwi athletes Ella Williams and Billy Stairmand, who won Olympic quotas for their country at ISA GAMES 2019 are not participating in the current edition in El Salvador! I don't understand, will they lose their quotas?

 

Wasn't it mandatory to participate in the 2019 and 2020 (2021) ISA Games?

 

 

I know that for health reasons athletes can be released, but this is not the case for both because I read in the New Zealand press that they chose not to go to El Salvador!
