2000 athletes registered ! Ten days after the announcement of the absence of Karate at the 2024 Games, never a competition has gathered so many people ! The Salzburg Series A (March 1-3) holds its record. The first day has long been devoted to Kata (more than 500 participants !) But, in the final, we find the same. Kazak Assadilov (-60 kg) holds his second consecutive final after Dubai. In +84 kg, the world champion will play bronze on Sunday.
