On the other hand, India is growing steadily in Men's FS. Growing in female FS too, but GR remains a point of concern.

@heywoodu will have a finalist in Greco-Roman wrestling. that's a bit surprising I guess. and he had a tough draw. beating Ukraine, Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan on his way to the final

If it’s Marcel Sterkenburg, he was third at The European Youth Champs this year

A bit surprising?! Wow, that is something I had never in my life expected, I'd have been more than a bit surprised already if there even was a Dutch participant  

 

The final will be tomorrow I assume? Any idea around which time? I want to watch that!

I saw him winning an international senior event in Poland last year. so that wasn't a huge huge surprise for me

 

yes tomorrow. finals will start 6pm (local time in Ufa) it will be the 4th final of the day. so we will have 3 finals + 4 bronze medal matches + 2 medal ceremony before this one. probably somewhere around 7:30 pm local time.

 

and I have to add the star of the day was from Norway, Exauce Mukubu, he dominated and destroyed all of his opponents (including an Iranian) . a very fun wrestler to watch

Yes, I believe they  are brothers. Can’t claim to know much about wrestling. Jessica Blaszka won some medals for us in the past, but she ended her career after not qualifying for Tokyo

it only took him 40 seconds to defeat our wrestler in Semis

I looked it up, Tyrone and Marcel are twins. Tyrone finished 17th in the European Youths

our wrestler managed to last a bit longer

 

I will definitely follow this guy in future events. his performance in SF and QF was too good to be true but in junior level coaches are not into scouting or analyzing the opponents. now Russian coaches have one day to have a plan for him. we will see if he can execute his throwing techniques tomorrow or not. but he is surely a possible future star.
