With the talent of the athletes, coupled with the efforts of the Brazilian Olympic Committee, Brazil is solidifying its position in second place on the medals table.
One of the goals of the Brazilian Olympic Committee in Santiago was to secure as many spots as possible in the Paris Olympics. Thankfully, their mission has been accomplished. Brazil’s campaign in Chile clinched 40 more seats on the plane to the French capital, which now has 143 seats reserved.
Amidst their pursuit of Olympic qualification for Paris 2024, Brazilian judo displayed exceptional performance at the Pan American Games in Santiago, Chile.
Santiago Pan American Games 2023 marked a record-breaking edition for Brazil in this sport, with the highest number of podium finishes achieved by Brazilian athletes.
The highlight of Team Brazil was Costa. He secured the top spot on the podium for the fourth time in the competition, this time in the 1,500-meter freestyle event.
