Daniel Borges Cargnin (born 20 December 1997 in Porto Alegre) is a Brazilian judoka.He won the bronze medal at the 2020 Olympic Games and the 2022 World Championships, in addition to being three-time Pan American Judo champion.[1][2][3][4]

Career

Judo entered Cargnin's life very early, at the age of six. Encouraged by a school friend, the Porto Alegre native started playing the sport at an academy in Canoas, in the metropolitan region of Porto Alegre. He began to stand out and, at the age of 13, he received an invitation from coach Antônio Carlos Pereira, known as Kiko, to join the Sogipa team. However, until his adolescence, the gaucho still shared his attention with football — he was a right-back at Grêmio's schools. Until one day his mother, Ana Rita, advised her son to dedicate himself to just one of the activities. That was when Daniel chose judo and, since then, his evolution has been constant.[5]

Since 2015, Daniel has participated in competitions for both the junior and senior Brazilian teams. But it was in 2017, after winning the 2017 World Judo Juniors Championships in Zagreb and becoming champion of the Olympic Trials, that Cargnin established himself in the main team, at the age of 20.[6]

In Brazil, he was the main name in the welterweight division (-66kg): two-time Pan American champion (2019 and 2020) and runner-up at the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima.[7]

Cargnin won a bronze medal at the 2020 Summer Olympics.[8][9] On June 16, 2021, Cargnin was called up by the Brazilian Judo Confederation (CBJ) for his first Olympics: the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, in Japan. The gaucho fought on July 25, the second day of the competition in Tokyo, and won the bronze medal. Daniel started the competition by beating the Egyptian Mohamed Abdelmawgoud, by ippon, on the golden score. Then, in the round of 16, he beat Moldovan Denis Vieru with a wazari also on the golden score. In the quarterfinals, he defeated the Italian Manuel Lombardo, world runner-up and leader of the ranking, with a wazari. In the semi-final, he lost by ippon to Japanese Hifumi Abe, two-time world champion. And, in the bronze medal match, he beat Israeli Baruch Shmailov with a wazari.[10]
