Canadian Jeffrey Adler has no delusions of grandeur about his chances of winning the 2020 CrossFit Games. Reigning champion Mat Fraser looks primed to take his fifth title and Adler said he can’t argue with that.

“I don’t think Fraser will be beat this year,” said the 26-year-old Adler. “For him to take second he would have to get third and fourth in a few workouts and I don’t think it will happen.”
However, this does not mean the Montreal native will not be doing anything but leaving everything out there at the CrossFit ranch in Aromas, California.
“I will for sure give 110 per cent to give him a good competition and I am sure the other three guys will do the same. Hopefully, he doesn’t win all the workouts.”
Adler is also joined by Americans Noah Ohlsen, who came second to Fraser last year, Samuel Kwant and Justin Medeiros. The five qualified through the online competition and will head into a bubble format from October 19-25. Adler came fifth in the 2020 CrossFit Open to book his ticket to the Games, putting on an impressive showing which saw him claim the country champion title for Canada.
