Fighting in -81 kg, Étienne Briand earned his place on the third step of the podium after defeating Belgian Matthias Casse, 10<sup>th</sup> on the world ranking, in overtime.</p>
<p>
By receiving a third penalty, Casse automatically made Briand the winner after a bout that lasted over 9 minutes.</p>
<p>
“It was a long fight, his style was very defensive. I couldn’t make him fall, but it’s okay for the fight to end this way,” said Briand, who hadn’t won a Grand Slam medal since May 2017. “A Grand Slam medal is always satisfying. It was about time for such a performance!”</p>
<p>
After winning his first two bouts, Briand faced Netherlander Frank De Wit, ranked second in the world. It was impossible to declare a winner after regulation time, meaning the fight went into overtime, during which the Netherlander won. “He always gives me a hard time. It was a close fight and either of us could have won, but today, he seemed in better shape than I was.” </p>
<p>
In repechage, Briand defeated the Rio Olympic champion, Russian Khasan Khalmurzaev. 30 seconds were long enough for the 26-year-old to earn a spot in the bronze-medal bout. “He had a difficult fight before mine. I was confident I could make him fall.”</p>
<p>
Fighting the same category, <strong>Antoine Valois-Fortier</strong> was eliminated after his second fight, by Matthias Casse. Before that, he had defeated Vladimir Zoloev, from Kyrgystan.</p>
