Kanoa Igarashi sealed his Tokyo Olympic selection Monday at the World Surfing Games in El Salvador, the final qualifier for this summer’s games.
The 23-year-old needed only to participate in the ongoing event after placing sixth in the World Surf League’s Championship Tour in 2019. The top 10 surfers on the tour earned Tokyo Games berths, provided they took part in the ensuing World Surfing Games.
