After winning her battle for Canadian citizenship earlier this year, teenage surfer Erin Brooks won’t be wearing the Maple Leaf at the Paris Olympics.

Brooks has been eliminated at the 2024 ISA World Surfing Games, the final Olympic qualifier that wraps up Sunday in Puerto Rico.

Brooks, one of six Canadians competing, was knocked out of Round 2 by France’s Vahiné Fierro and then eliminated in Thursday’s repechage round.
