Well, 10 golds in a day is great despite one or two screw ups.
I'd guess we should win between 5 and 10 more in the last 3 days. There seem to be a lot that will be 50/50 chances, though I have no idea of our level in things like Bochas and Squash (it looks like there was good performance in both today).
Ok, it looks like my prediction will fall short. 6 golds today. I didn't expect this many golds in athletics after years of very poor performances.

I'd like to think this can't possibly be true but in the women's skeet competition there are only 4 shooters and in 4th place after 75 plates there is bolivian that so far scored... 1 point.
I don’t follow international handball too much outside of various multi-sports games, but the women’s side in South America seems pretty open behind Brazil. all registered relatively close results in games against each other, or at least there didn’t seem to be a more dominant side following Brazil. Any thoughts/analysis from our South American users, or those more knowledgeable on handball? Trying to figure out if getting the Pan Am quota is a surprise.
We're playing with a B team (no players from european clubs).
CHI/PAR/URU are all around the same level. They seem to beat each other alternatively all the time.
I watched a bit of it, even caught their only goal.
They remind me when I played youth school handball and once we had to play a team from upper category who had all +1.85m guys, we lost like 30-1 and I scored the only goal. Never been prouder of myself in sport
Exactly, but USA and Canada can still qualify even though they're far ahead of the competition. I guess they want do give opportunities for other South American nations that won't go to the Olympics.
Because it's a Conmebol decision. Concacaf doesn't have to do the same.
My guess of why they do it: south american women teams have so little continental competition (just a copa america every 4 years lmao) that they don't want to leave so many teams without doing anything for such long period.
Brazil doesn't need it since they will always play the olympics and world cup. They want to throw a bone to the teams below.
They are showing most of badminton players matches on the TV Court. Not even hiding the fact they are teasing the country which often attempted to prevent Falklanders from competing in Pan Am badminton events
On a separate note and joined the Commonwealth last weekend; probably too late for a Games debut in Birmingham but there's plenty of time to organise a team for the following edition in Victoria State.
Gabon has virtually no historical link to the UK unless I'm mistaken.
Why would they join the commonwealth? Or is anyone accepted?

Could someone tell me which sports award quotas for Paris (other than some team sports and athletics/swimming)?
