France at the top of world basketball in the 3×3 category! The women’s selection, which finished at the foot of the Olympic podium last summer in Tokyo (4th), took its revenge by becoming world champion this Sunday in Antwerp (Belgium).
In the World Cup final, Marie-Eve Paget’s Bleues dominated Belgium (16-13), putting their name on the list for the first time in this 7th edition. A logical continuation for the French, who remained on two third places (2019, 2017).
Third place is also the final result of the men’s selection. Beaten by Canada after extra time in the semi-finals, Les Bleues got the better of the host country, Belgium, in the “little final” (18-17).
