Owen Livesey will aim to go one better this week and climb the top spot of the medal rostrum at the Oceania Open. Livesey claimed a silver medal in the U81kg category at last weekend's Africa Open, adding valuable Rio Olympic qualification points in the process.
More medals could be on the cards for Britain this week with 15 judokas named for the competition in Australia from November 13-14. "It was the first of three competitions on this tour, so to start it with a medal was good and obviously more points towards Rio qualification”, said Livesey. On to Australia for the Oceania Open now where I can hopefully go one better.
Ben Fletcher is looking to make it back to back gold medals in the U100kg category while Tom Reed joins Livesey in the U81kg category. Nathon Burns is another who took silver last time out and will go again in the U66kg category alongside Lewis Keeble. Andy Burns, George Smith and Frazer Chamberlain will compete in the U90kg category while Kim Renicks will aim to improve on the U48kg bronze from the African Open. While Sarah Adlington has the opportunity to back up her African Open bronze in the +78kg category and Fletcher's sister Megan is picked for the U70kg competition.
