Antoine Bouchard (-73kg) loses his first round match against Kote Kopanadze (GEO) 10-0. Francois Gauthier Drapeau (-81kg) loses his second round match 11-0 against Askerbii Gerberkov (BRN), after getting a bye initially. Gauthier Drapeau was the number one seeded judoka in his weight category, so I’m sure he’ll be a bit disappointed with this result. Mohab El Nahas (-81kg) loses his second round match against Abylaikhan Zhubanazar (KAZ) 11-0, after getting a bye initially.

2023 Pan Am Games Qualification Tournament for Taekwondo took place from March 22-23, 2023. Here’s where Canada secured quotas; Poomsae Women’s Individual - 1 Men’s Individual - 1 Kyorugi Women’s -49kg - 1 Women’s -57kg - 1 Women’s -67kg - 1 Men’s -58kg - 1 Men’s -68kg - 1 Men’s -80kg - 1 Men’s +80kg - 1 We missed out on qualification in the Women’s -67kg category via Rachel Fountain. Anyways I’m bored, so I’ll try to predict the team that’ll be representing Canada at the 2023 Pan Am Games in taekwondo. Poomsae Men’s Individual- Jinsu Ha (WR #9) Poomsae- Women’s Individual- Michelle Lee (WR #12) (Not to be confused with Michelle Li ) Poomsae- Mixed Pair- Jinsu Ha/Michelle Lee Kyorugi Women’s -49kg - Viviane Tranquille Women’s -57kg - Skylar Park Women’s -67kg - Ashley Kraayeveld Men’s -58kg - Nicholas Hoefling Men’s -68kg - Tae-Ku Park Men’s -80kg - Jordan Stewart Men’s +80kg - Marc-André Bergeron

Mel/Brandie are through to the quarterfinals at the Elite16 in Tepic, Mexico after finishing first in their pool. They’ll play the winner of Cannon/Sponcil (USA) v.

Jessica Klimkait (-57kg) wins a bronze medal on Day 1 of the 2023 Grand Slam in Tbilisi, Georgia defeating current world champion Rafaela Silva (BRA) 10-0. In the semi-finals she lost to Nora Gjakova (KOS) 10-0.

Final event of the season for the women was today in Lahti, Finland Alexandria Loutitt finished 15th (219.7), while Abigail Strate finished 18th (218.5). A great season for our female ski jumpers Loutitt - 13th Overall (547 PTS), 7th Raw Air (1,648 PTS) Strate - 11th Overall (669 PTS), 11th Raw Air (1,613 PTS)

Despite them clearly not playing at their best level, Team Einarson (7-5) is through to the playoffs at the 2023 Women’s Curling World Championships. With one draw still left to go, Norway (7-4) and Sweden (7-4) would have to lose their matches (Against Germany and Denmark respectively) for Canada to secure second and a bye straight to the semi-finals. (Canada would be in a five way tie for fifth but they would have the best (3-1) H2H record against Sweden, Italy, Norway, Japan (Only loss) so therefore they would secure second). Should only one of the above win, Canada would secure third, otherwise they’ll finish in fourth.

Was not expecting Keldiyorova to defeat Krasniqi Anyways, a nice bronze for Jessica Klimkait Should be a great battle between her and Deguchi for the -57kg quota at Paris 2024.

Where can I find full results? @intoronto

Josh Liendo won 100m Butterfly, and 100m Freestyle bronze at the 2022 World Aquatic Championships. Plus you have Illya Kharun, who’s one of the of the most promising junior swimmers in the world at the moment. Sure they don’t field as strong of a team as their female counterparts, but saying they’re “almost nonexistent”
