Wyatt Sanford Wins Bronze in Men's 63.5 kg, Ending Canada's 28-Year Olympic Boxing Medal Drought
Aug 4, 2024, 10:02 AM
Canadian boxer Wyatt Sanford has secured a bronze medal in the men's 63.5 kg boxing category at the Paris 2024 Olympics, marking Canada's first Olympic boxing medal in 28 years. Sanford, hailing from Kennetcook, Nova Scotia, advanced to the semifinals after defeating Uzbekistan's Ruslan Abdullaev in the quarter-finals. Despite losing the semifinal bout to France's Sofiane Oumiha, Sanford was guaranteed a bronze medal as there are no bronze matches in Olympic boxing. This achievement ends Canada's boxing medal drought, with the last medal won in 1996. Sanford, a three-sport athlete, has been celebrated by his local community, which has held outdoor viewing parties to support him. The semifinal bout took place on August 4 at 6:30am ET. Canada now has 16 medals at the Olympics.
