description: "Sami Chouchi is a Belgian retired judoka. He started off his career in the ‍–‍73 kg weight category, switched in 2017 to the ‍–‍81 kg weight category where he found his path to an Olympic Games blocked by fellow Belgian Matthias Casse, so in 2023 he switched again to the heavier ‍–‍90 kg weight category. He won a silver medal in the ‍–‍81 kg 2018 European Championships and a bronze in the 2022 European Championships and had eight podium places in Grand Slams and Grand Prix with a gold at the 2021 Tbilisi Grand Slam and bronze at the 2021 Tashkent, the 2022 Paris and the 2022 Tel Aviv Grand Slams. He announced his retirement from the sport via social media on 22 May 2025 at the age of 32, citing the pain no longer worth the effort."
