Koski and others absent from 2026 Rogue Invitational due to injuries

The Rogue Invitational 2026 is just around the corner, but the entry list has seen a number of changes. Injuries have forced multiple athletes to hand their spots to replacements.

Jonne Koski is one of the notable absences. The Finnish CrossFitter was already dealing with a foot injury heading into the second stop of the World Fitness Project Tour, and his condition subsequently worsened.

The withdrawals have given other athletes a so-called backfill invite, a replacement invitation. This is standard practice at major CrossFit events when the field changes close to the competition date.

The Rogue Invitational is considered one of the most prestigious invitational tournaments on the CrossFit calendar. Dutch and Belgian fans can keep an eye on the definitive start list in the coming weeks.
