The happiest team in Antwerp was France, finishing 3rd.

Mélanie de Jesus dos Santos was a rock.

Kaylia Neymour qualified to Olympics
Kaylia was born in Saint-Benoît-la-Forêt, France, to a French mother and an Algerian father.
She’s representing Algeria at Worlds 2023.
Happily, she hit 4/4 in the qualification round and has qualified to Paris through the AA.
