The last of the 11 Senegalese athletes competing at the Paris Olympics took to the field this Thursday (August 8). Combé Seck had a rather timid start, finishing last in the series and having to make it through the quarterfinals to reach the semifinals of the single-seat canoe over 200 meters (C1).
Of all his companions, Koum Seck was the only athlete in the Senegalese team who had not yet made his debut at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Now it has been done, but with difficulty. 29-year-old Senegal flag bearer Ceste with hurdler Louis-FrancoeurMendy failed to advance directly to the semi-finals in the 200m single-seat kayak event.
Combé Seck is in the third qualifying round, with seven boats competing, and must finish in the first two races to have a chance of reaching the semi-finals. Mission is defeated for the seventh and final time in his series (54’76). Therefore, she must pass the quarter-finals, all the races scheduled on time (11:00 GMT) to avoid elimination from the Olympics and the end of the competition for the entire Senegalese delegation.
