Awful day for Italy in Russia...

after dominateing the Olympic Games last year, our skeet girls couldn't get even close to those results...and the best placing at the end was the 5th rank earned by the Olympic Champion Diana Bacosi...

and among the juniors it was a real disaster...no team medal, no individual finalists...

let's hope that the guys tomorrow can get a sweet revenge...

 

p.s. by the way, after a full week of competitions, the tv producers still haven't learned anything about shooting...they just can't do their job properly...all the finals are almost unwatchable...:facepalm::wall:

The top 2 in mens skeet are both only 22 years old, which is very surprising, because normally shotgun events are dominated by older athletes.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

well, it once was so...

in the last few years the sport has developed with rules and competition formats that lowered the average age of the best shooters...

thinking only about men's skeet, Vincent Hancock first and now Gabriele Rossetti just demonstrated that even teenagers can win medals in the most important global events...

but also in the other events we've had very young champions in recent years...

only in this World Champ in Moscow we've seen Jessica Rossi (who's only 25, despite being on top of the Trap discipline since 2009) winning the Women's Trap and Dania Jo Vizzi (only 22 years young) winning the Women's Skeet...

it's like in Golf...until a few years ago, experience was the main feature required to win and we only had not so young champions...meanwhile the development of the game in the last 10/15 years has changed things dramatically and now we're used to younger and more athletic champions even in sports where athletic ability wasn't considered a factor until a while ago...

 

 

by the way, today the last event of the World Championships 2017 is scheduled: the Mixed Skeet Team Competition

 

and those are the 6 pairs qualified for the Semifinal Stage:

 

Slovakia 1 (Danka Bartekova/Stefan Zemko)

China 2 (Zhang Fan/Wei Meng)

United States 2 (Dania Jo Vizzi/Hayden Stewart)

Russia 1 (Nadezda Konovalova/Nikolay Teplyy)

United States 2 (Kimberly Rhode/Christian Elliott)

Italy 2 (Katiuscia Spada/Tammaro Cassandro)

 

Italy 1, with their 2 Olympic Champions (Diana Bacosi and Gabriele Rossetti) has been unbelievably eliminated with a score of just 95/100 (9th place at the end)...:yikes::facepalm::wall:

Well, that's not really the true, in fact it trends to be the complete opposite..

 

Double trap for example - average age of people on Olympic podium

2008 - 31 years

2012 - 37 years

2016 - 39 years

 

Men's skeet...

2008 - 27 years

2012 - 31 years

2016 - 33 years
