Kurts Adams Rozentals has been suspended from competing in canoeing events by Paddle UK amid an investigation which he suspects is linked to his OnlyFans account
British canoeist Kurts Adams Rozentals says that he’s being forced to choose between his Olympic dream and his OnlyFans account after being banned from competing. Rozentals, from Staffordshire, competes in the individual canoe slalom but was suspended by governing body Paddle UK last month.
This was due to ‘allegations’ surrounding his social media posts, something which Paddle UK have refused to clarify but he suspects is due to him having an OnlyFans account. Rozentals, who won individual C1 silver at the World Under-23 Championships in 2023, created an account on the subscription-based website in January to help fund his training programme.
He’s since posted 39 videos and over 100 photos on OnlyFans, and has accumulated more than 10,000 ‘likes’. His popularity has come at a price, though. Paddle UK have removed Rozentals from their World Class Programme, UK Sport’s lottery-funded initiative which helps athletes on realise their Olympic dreams, pending an investigation.
