Gold for Thomas Paquette at the ADCC Montreal Open 2026

Gold in Montreal! Thomas Paquette won the -76 kg title at the ADCC Canada Montréal Open on September 26, 2026. His Instagram post shared the gold medal and a simple message of thanks to everybody who helps make it possible. We are happy to celebrate this result with him.

Thomas competed in no-gi grappling, in the men's adult intermediate division. The photos tell the story of the celebration: a gold medal in front of the ADCC banner, the top step of the podium, and another medal photo from the event. All three images from the post are here to enjoy.
