Poor guy precisely just missed men's event. Hope he shows free skating program in the gala.

I'm guessing his COVID case is why he was chosen, otherwise you'd think Brown would get that pick. Either way, makes sense to give him one more skate, hopefully he'll have some fun.

 

Keegan Messing being chosen for the gala is probably the best thing that will happen to Canadian figure skating all games xD

 

(Yes Canada looks not all unlikely to get a bronze team medal, but there will be so many asterisks next to it you can't really call it an accomplishment)

If China knows the Kamila drama will happen, it would definitely made all effort to be the original 4th which may be a bronze medal in the end.

Ya, had China put Sui and Han for the free the result would have been different, but why risk them fighting for 4th?

lol im surprised. No offence to anyone, but figure skating is by far the "worst" of the winter sports. Absolutely unwatachable. I am quite happy I don't have to watch any minute of it as Canada is was/not expected to be competitive. 

If Canada was competitive, you would have to watch it, despite not liking it, or what? :p 

 

I mean, the Netherlands might have been super competitive in dressage at one point, I just don't get it and so why would I watch :d

I do wonder if the IOC worry CAS will side with Russia and have made sure it has all gone public to put pressure on them. We all know CAS is not the strongest on doping bans at times.

Bleh, so Sadovsky is maybe coming away with a medal despite the Olympic participation that will probably give him nightmares for some time.

She tested positive way back at the Russian Nationals. Almost two months ago.

 

And it very much seems like the RUSADA swept it under the rug whilst only informing Valieva's coaching team and not Valieva herself...

Makes me wonder if some at Rusada want Russia banned from sports. It might suit Putin to use Russia being banned as an excuse to I say the world is biased again Russia.

In fact i think the IOC could lose any hope for anyone wanting to bid for 2030 if Russia are not expelled permanently from international sports. 
 

Surley Rusda knew yesterday the IOC would appeal. Maybe that was the plain. Politically it suits Putin for it be dealt with by non Russians not Rusda.

You can't be serious. No matter what happens, doping cases don't influence the Olympic bidding at all. 

 

And you are expecting way too much if you think that this will end with a full Russia ban. There's a good chance that there won't even be a DSQ and they will keep the gold, they will fight very hard for this at CAS.

IOC will have to at least push it or more sponsors will withdraw and countries will talk about setting up an alternative Olympics instead.

      whatever you heard is just speculation. no one knows at the moment, probably even the orange himself.   and Iranian athletes failed to get visa so many times before. even female athletes. there is no pattern, it's just too random.    and yes Iran has a system of compulsory military service for men, and there is 50% chance for anybody to be randomly drafted by IRGC affiliated organizations. that's the case for Taremi and few others in the current team.

      Summer Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028 Qualification Systems

      Some changes that I've noticed:   3x3 Basketball: With the expanded 12 team field, one extra team per gender qualifies through world rankings, one extra team qualifies through the universality driven tournament and there's now an Olympic Qualifier series to award the final quotas.   Beach Volleyball: Continental qualifiers have have priority over the World championship and World Rankings quotas and there's now Olympic Qualifier Series quotas.   Canoe Sprint: World ranking system now in place and will be used instead of awarding world championship quotas. Road Cycling: 2 nations ranking quotas per gender moved to universality.   Track Cycling: Sprint and Keirin ranking list is now combined and will award 14 quotas per gender. Previously it was 7+7. Team pursuit down to 8 quotas from 10. 2 of the quotas have been moved to madison (one additional team) and 6 to the omnium.   Fencing: Can get a Continental quota of you finished in the top 24 of the rankings. It was previously top 16.    Hockey: 2 pro league quotas replace two qualification tournament quotas.   Judo: 5 less universality places and 4 more Continental places. For men, there's two more spots for Asia, one less for Oceania and 1 more for the Americas. For the women, there's one more spot for Europe, one less for Oceania and two more for Asia.   Modern Pentathlon: Less quotas awarded through world rankings as a result of quota cuts.   Open Water Swimming: Introduction of world ranking qualifier.   Sailing: In general, seems to be more quotas awarded at the last chance regatta and less quotas at the World Championships   Shooting: One less quota handed out at each World Championship and the return on World Cup qualifiers.   Swimming: Olympic qualification and consideration times renamed to A and B standard. B standard is now 1% slower than the A standard compared to 0.5% in 2024. Stroke 50s have their own direct qualification events and have minimum time standards instead of A and B standards. Qualification times have been nuked again. B standard selection process has also changed.   Volleyball: New revised format. Continental championships first, then world championships followed by world rankings. In 2024, it was 3 qualification tournaments and then world rankings. Only 3 countries per gender will qualify by world rankings now compared to 5 in 2024

      For Italy, the match against Japan and likely the final match against Estonia will be a safe/relegation game, but I'm think that whether the match against Estonia will be decisive on anything, if we have 0 points after 4 matches. We're currently the worst team here – we have 0 points and are taking significantly fewer shots than our opponents in each match. Japan and Estonia are looking better for now and unfortunately, without significant improvement play starting tomorrow, we'll likely be relegated to the fourth division. With the absence of Russia and Belarus, this will be a shame, even for the weaker 2006/2007 age generation. Especially, since we are playing this tournament at home. For anyone could have competed with a good shape, except perhaps Hungary, who are currently the best team in the tournament.

      They shouldn't promise additional spots to countries that qualify 3 athletes in each distance, because then taking those spots away isn't fair. For example, in Italy, Previtali won the 500m QO for country but he would likely have to stay at home because the staff probably would have chosen Casinelli for the relay (Casinelli won't be competing individually at all). I don't know what the situation is in Canada with the fifth-place skater? Will this person only compete in the relay, or will he also be a reserve there?

      That's too bad. Athletes who finish in the top 32 (or 36 for the 1590m) should be the priority over the 5th athlete from a relay country.   So Croatia loses their 2nd women's quota, Hong Kong loses their only women's quota and Poland loses their 3rd women's quota.   This means that Great Britain, Slovakia and Ukraine should fill up the rest of the 1500m field since they are the highest placed reserves that doesn't require an additional quota.

      Philip Rivers' possible return to NFL while being a semifinalist for the Hall of Fame certainly wasn't on my bingo card. But well. So far he's only on the practice squad
