London: 8g, 5s, 2b, same as in Athens. Sidney: 8g, 6s, 3b. Beijing was a bit weaker (3g, 5s, 2b). So Hungary is almost always around the top ten on the medal table.

pdr4332 149 Posted August 20, 2016 #103 Share Posted August 20, 2016 (edited) I really believed in the 3 womens gold for . And they did it! hckosice: I think many in Hungary have mixed feelings about Rio. (I mean the whole not only canoe kayak) On one hand, amazing performance from the 2 three-time champions (Kozak and Hosszu) and the fencing team (2 G 1 S 1 B), some positive surprises like the young swimmer Kenderesi (winning bronze medal in his first olympics after beating Phelps in the heats and semifinal) or the shot putter Anita Marton (first womens medal in athletics since 1968) On the other hand: - handball team did not qualify (neither W nor M) - HUN swim team was about 35 strong, and many strong names who very expected to have a good performance (at least IV-V-VI place) did not even make it to the final, along them 2012 champion Daniel Gyurta - Disappointing performance of the judo team (along with some referee "mis-judgement") - Disappointing performance of the wrestling team (along with open _cheating_ by one of the referee's on a HU bronze match) - Disappointing performance of the mens waterpolo team (for the second olympics V/VI place) - Disappointing performance of the mens canoe-kayak team (see above) + this is not directly sports related: absolutely sub-par commentators on Hungarian public TV covering the OG, with exception of athletics and fencing and a few other disciplines. The guy who covered canoe-kayak sometimes had no clue about what is happening on the track... But I personally would like congratulate to all Hungarian athletes who had a good performance at Rio, no matter what place or medal or whatever!

Perfect summary on my feelings about these Games. 8 golds (fabulously consistent) but missing some other "surprises" that occured every other olympics. 7 out of 8 golds are won by females with the only exception Áron Szilágyi. That's weak boys... very weak. Edited August 20, 2016 by GoHungary! pdr4332 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks There are serious problems in our men's kayak team... not expected golds but definitely not such poor performances. Waterpolo... one of the most heartbreaking thing is that lost bronze medal... for the 3rd time in a row. That's cruel from life but girls did not deserved it based on the last 2 minutes...

OlympicsFan 782 Posted August 20, 2016 #107 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Very interesting that Tamara Csipes was banned for 4 months last year and that Fazekas Zur compete for USA in 2011 (both womens k4 500 m). The hungarian girls were born in 1989 (Csipes), 1987 (Kozak), 1986 (Szabo) and 1980 (Fazekas Zur), i hope that the german team will stay together, then they should win gold in 4 years, considering that 2 of them were born in 1992 (Hering and Kriegerstein) and the other two were born in 1989 (Weber) and 1988 (Dietze). Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
