well, the Slovenian referee got really close last night...

she literally invented a few Kyong-ho against Jade, so to put her with 9 and still almost a minute to go...only her immense class avoided a shameful ending...

and also the semifinal between Mandic and the Korean girl almost ended in a farce, when the judges gave the Korean 2 points well after the central ref called a stop and a kyong-ho against the Korean (which was then also cancelled by the jury after the video replay)...only a miracolous kick at the last second saved the Serbian and allowed her to reach the final (but then was quite empty on a mental level after that semifinal and lost without really fight against the Polish girl)...

everytime I watch TKD, it's always the same story like in Boxing...I can't stand those judges anymore...

Finally someone from Canada rising to the occasion. Park is only 18!

How is Russia suddenly strong is men's taekwondo? In each Olympic category they have a great competitor. Maybe new coach?

I don't think they have a new coach, they started their progress few years ago and they are getting better and better.
