Even getting to the final is an overachievement for him. And they hasn’t really been many others for .

Jack Whelbourne was the last man to do so, 1500m in 2014.

Well that was a disappointingly boring final...

Like gladiatorial games in ancient Rome, over-caution is killing the sport.

Silver!

No fall with 10 men is the most WTF thing possible for this finale : yes, it's Short Track.

Yay, two more Top6 placements for us in the weakest event of the Liu brothers. No matter what happens in 500m and the relay, this was a great Games for us.

Was so cheering for both them. So sad they missed the podium here, but there still 2 more chances and especially for the relay it looks really promising.

It depends on if they are getting tired or not. I mean, they were already in three finals and Sándor looked kinda tired in that 1500m final. Hopefully the next race day will be easy for them because they will only have a 500m heat and the relay SF.
