Date and length of the article are OK, QPQ done, he article is well sourced, no copyright or WP:OR issues. There is a bit of an issue with how the hook supporting sentence is sourced in the article (given that the sources you cite above are slightly contradictory). Upon closer inspection, it seems clear that the CBC article "Olin also won Canada's first-ever international medal in surfing by capturing gold in longboard at the 2017 Pan Am Qualifiers in Peru" uses sloppy language since her first medal was actually bronze, not gold. The other source, by sportsnet "She won Canada’s first-ever international surfing medals here with a gold (longboard) and bronze (shortboard) at the 2017 Pan Am Surf Games." provides more complete and accurate info on the issue. I would be happy to go along with the main hook but you'd need to replace the cite on the relevant setence in the '2017 Pan American Surf Games' section of the article with a cite to sportsnet (currently the citation in that sentence is to CBC).

Fixed Thanks for your review, Nsk92, I replaced the CBC citation with the one for Sportsnet. --Toreightyone (talk) 16:29, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
