The tatami shakes! The great stars of judo meet from May 19 to 24 in Abu Dhabi for the World Championship 2024.
For the second time since its unification, the Judo World Cup is held in an Olympic year. And as happened in 2021, when it was held two months before Tokyo 2020, stories will emerge from here that will continue in Paris 2024.
New world champions who aspire to the even more difficult goal, Olympic gold. Great judokas who lose their throne and seek redemption in the Mars Arena Champ…Ah! And that detail, of course: it is the last great qualifying event for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
The Olympic qualification period closes on June 23 and, with no more major events until the Olympic event, the final ranking will be almost identical to the one left by this World Championship. Abu Dhabi distributes up to 2,000 points, the maximum possible, so anything can happen.
France and Japan, the great judo powers, face this World Cup in a very different way. While the Japanese will rest the Paris 2024 team, the French country takes a large part of the judokas selected for the next Olympic Games.
Will his legend increase Teddy Riner with his 12th world champion title? Will it equal Clarisse Agbegnenou the record of seven titles in the women’s category?
Discover below everything you need to know about the 2024 Judo World Cup, the last major qualifying event of this sport for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
