Keenan Cornelius has won double gold at the majority
of IBJJF tournaments held this summer and showed no signs of slowing down at
the 2017 IBJJF Chicago Summer Open over the weekend.
Cornelius continued his dominating tear by winning
both the heavyweight and absolute divisions in the two-day tournament, which
was hosted at Chicago State University. In pursuit of the IBJJF Adult Black
Belt League No. 1 ranking and of course the accompanying $15,000 end-of-season
prize, he jumped all the way from No. 12 to 8 on the list after his latest
double gold performance.

Barbosa took gold in the medium-heavyweight division but sat out the absolute
as Hinger and Cornelius took the two available spots in the bracket for Atos.
Both Cornelius and Barbosa are registered for the upcoming Asian Jiu-Jitsu
Championship in Tokyo and could potentially move as high as No. 5 with a double
gold performance for either athlete.
