France’s Riner sets new record with 11th world title in Judo.
Teddy Riner Wins 11th World Championship Title
French judoka Teddy Riner has secured his 11th world championship individual title in Doha, beating Russian Inal Tasoev in the men’s +100kg final. This is an impressive feat for the 34-year-old, who suffered a shock defeat in the 2020 Tokyo quarter-finals while on the hunt for a third straight Olympic gold in the +100kg division. Riner helped France to collect the inaugural mixed team event gold at the Tokyo Olympics and overcame 2021 European champion Tasoev with a waza ari in a repeat of their 2021 Doha Masters final. This win comes a little over a year ahead of the Paris Olympic Games, and Riner is sure to be a top contender.
