French athletes struggle with Covid-19 restrictions
In this edition we see how France's sports world is handling the Covid-19 curveball.

But beyond the financial aspect, this health crisis has also taken its toll on French athletes both physically and mentally. Judo champion Clarisse Agbegnenou gives us her take on the situation.
