Double Olympic heavyweight champion Teddy Riner won the Paris tournament on Sunday. The 34-year-old Frenchman made his return to the tatami mats in individual competition, nine months after his eleventh world championship title in Doha, Qatar.
In six months, on August 2, Riner could add a third individual coronation to an already extraordinary record. The Frenchman, who won in 2012 and then 2016, will be aiming for a thirdindividual Olympic title, a feat until now only achieved in lightweight.
