Lucy Renshall had the most challenging qualification of the six after defeating three fighters all vying for the one -63kg qualification spot at the start of the year. She will travel to Tokyo as an Olympic debutant. Gemma Howell will compete at her second Olympic Games. Howell, made her Olympic debut in 2012 and has overcome multiple injuries to secure her qualification to Tokyo. Wales’ Natalie Powell competes at her second Olympic Games, having made her debut finishing seventh in Rio.

Joining them will be Commonwealth Games champion Sarah Adlington is the most experienced member of the British squad having made her British Judo senior debut back in 2008 at the European Championships in Lisbon.
