Verbij after his race: "I had to stop instead of attempt that risky exchange, otherwise I'd also ruin his race. I'm not an asshole."

Just for fun, a complete 'prediction' including times, including surprises :   Nils Van Der Poel - 6:06.01   Patrick Roest - 6:10.12  Ted-Jan Bloemen

I just check the stats, it's the first Olympic podium ever for an Italian in women's speed skating

thanks, but no way it was going to happen...

 

unfortunately, Ghiotto is a choker...he never matches his world cup times and results in the global events...:facepalm:

He was simply not a medal contender, he will never skate 6.09 in a track like Beijing, it's not a question of choker, otherwise there are at least 5 chokers in this race because there were 6 or 7 skaters fighting for bronze. Italians probably aren't in best shape looking also at Giovannini and Malfatti but also in best shape Ghiotto will never skate under 6.13 in this track. He is very good on fast ice like North American, he instead seems more heavy in other tracks.

Still Ghiotto is a very nice skater to watch, unbelievable good technique and besides that a very nice person. I'm still hoping for a better result in the 10K?

This is why I love the Olympics..

 

Woke up this morning and saw on the OBS news feed that Van der Poel had won.  So I went back and watched the last pair fully knowing he was about to win.  And that was still absolutely incredible to watch.  What a comeback.  American commentators couldn't believe it

not on this ice, I fear...

 

our best bets at the moment are women's mass start and 1500m with super-Lollipop...

 

I don't think our men have a chance to shine this time...

      Fencing FIE World Cup 2024 - 2025

      By copravolley · Posted

      Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.

      Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.

      No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal.

      Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?

      Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.

      No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
