Team Dressage and Eventing sharing some of the scores might be the closest to it. 

Not at all. Dressage uses the same system seen in archery and gymnastics, basically. And these are not individual events.

I am growing increasingly worried about the recent absence of Thomas Bach (Olympic Champion, Fencing, 1976). Where is he?  During the first few days of the Olympics he was, like Superman everywhere at once, but I haven’t seen him at all since this whole Russian skating moppet controversy started.  Is he trapped in a lift at the Beijing Mandarin Oriental?  Perhaps locked in the cabin of his private jet?  Off on a secret mission to broker peace between Moscow & Kiev?  An anxious world need to be reassured!

    • Imagine being the UEFA/FIFA official tasked with burning his hands on this never-ending fire     Go for a home match without fans for both Romania and Kosovo and then get on with life.
    • Dutch Winter Olympics is all about speedskating and shorttrack.    In shorttrack we have a problem since Suzanne Schulting (3 times Olympic Champion) broke her ankle this year. After since it looks like she concentrates on speedskating on the long track. But in that sport she is not really that good. For shorttrack we have medal chances for Xandra Velzeboer on the 500 meters and Jens van 't Wout on the men's distances, although Danjinou from Canada is in a league of his own.   In speedskating we have several medal chances, but I'm expecting not that much gold, considering Jordan Stolz (500/1000/1500) and Davide Ghiotto (5000/10000) winning the gold medals on the classic distances almost for sure. There will be some silver and bronze on the men's side however (Patrick Roest (5000), Kjeld Nuis (1500), Tim Prins (1000) and maybe Jenning de Boo (500)).   On the women's side there is Miho Takagi (1000/1500) and Ragne Wiklund (3000/5000) and the Canadian women. But also chances for Dutch gold with Jutta Leerdam (1000), Joy Beune (1500/3000), Marijke Groenewoud (mass/3000) and Merel Conijn (5000). Unless Leerdam will continue travelling with Jake Paul and focus on her boyfriend's stupid influence-career more than on her own career.    2 medals in short track, 10 medals in speedskating, but not many golden!
    • Yes, you're right. But the point is that the private sporting agency supersedes national law on this subject. 
    • It was assistent coach and former player Adam Szalai. He was brought to the locker room to rest up a bit, and then was taken away by ambulance, but without much haste: other than being somewhat groggy, it seems like he was getting better.
    • Day 5 (November 13) Results:   Group A:    Puerto Rico 2-5  Venezuela  Mexico 8-6  Netherlands   Group B:    Australia 3-9  Japan  Dominican Republic 6-1   Korea 3-6  Taiwan   Day 6 (November 14) Results:   Group A:    Netherlands 0-11  Venezuela  Puerto Rico 3-4  Panama   United States 12-2  Mexico   USA and Venezuela advance to the Super Round   Group B:    Cuba 4-8  South Korea  Taiwan 2-1  Dominican Republic    Day 7 (November 15) Results:    Dominican Republic 0-5  Australia   South Korea 3-6  Japan   Day 8 (November 16) Results:    Australia 3-4  Cuba  Japan 3-1  Taiwan  Dominican Republic 6-9
    • Looks like the person has been taken away, hopefully in relatively ok condition, and we're continuing the match.
    • nice (curious) description of what happened  
    • no, since Vlhova is still out, there were 2 girls tied for 7th in the start list, so the first group was expanded to 8 just for Today (and Miki was "unlucky" and grabbed the bib no.8)
    • Things have gone horribly wrong in the Netherlands - Hungary match. Someone from the Hungarian dugout started shaking and becoming very unwell, CPR has been or is being performed and the match has been suspended for a while now. No idea yet who it is (player, staff, no idea).
