PSG Judo Secures First Champions League Title with Teddy Riner's Return

Teddy Riner made his competitive comeback in the final, helping PSG defeat Red Star Belgrade in a dominant team performance.

Teddy Riner returned to competition for the first time since the Paris 2024 Olympics, signing a new contract with PSG Judo just a day before the tournament.
PSG Judo triumphed over Red Star Belgrade in the Champions League final, winning 4-0 and claiming the club's first title in the competition's history.
Riner played a key role in the final, securing a victory in his match after a tense golden score period, adding to the team's overall dominance.
The team advanced to the final with commanding wins in earlier rounds, defeating AM Asnières 4-1 in the quarterfinals and Judo Ukraine 4-0 in the semifinals, without needing Riner to compete.
The next confirmed competition for Riner is the Grand Slam of Paris, scheduled for February 2025, as he continues his journey toward the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
