Canadian surfers Young, Zelasko carving an Olympic path at Pan Am Games

LIMA, Peru — One of the sports making its Olympic debut next year is creating waves so large they’re being felt in Peru — and two Canadian athletes are hoping to ride them all the way to Tokyo.
Surfers Cody Young and Bethany Zelasko are in Lima at the Pan Am Games, where the shortboard event they are competing in offers direct qualification for the 2020 Olympic Games.
