1 gold and 2 bronze for Sweden :SWE

 

Sweden need more athletes to perform better. Feels bad that only two guys can do it. :(

Speaking of that, Tomasz Majewski said the Daniel Stahl's no mark on the throw that would have been good enough for bronze was overstepped by 4 milimeters. Apparently Americans had such cameras that it was possible to determine such a small foul.

Ok. Still he isn’t the best. Remember he won Olympics with 67m . Not going enough right now. :)

:FRA Well, one (gold) medal is clearly not that great. But considering the team we had there, that's was kinda expected with only two solid medal hopes (Kevin Mayer and Quentin Bigot).

 

Honestly, I was fearing we would come empty hand for the fist time since 1993, but Drama Mayer cleared that for us on the last day. 

 

9 Finals is better than expected, and we discovered 2 two new medal hopes for the future (Wilfried Happio in the 400mh and the men's 4*100 relay) and also that Lavillenie is not dead yet. On the placing table, we end up with 32 points which is slightly better than Doha and Tokyo.

Munich can't come soon enough. Plenty of new faces will be there on the road to Paris 2024 LA 2028.

:BRA Leticia Oro Melo bronze medal yesterdey was the most unexpected medal in the history of the sports in Brazil after the Bronze in the womans tennis doubles last Olympics. Never heard about her before, she came from nowhere lol

 

1 gold and 1 bronze is not that bad but we still very far from the most traditional nations.

All 6 of Canada's medalists at Tokyo came into this event with an injury, nursing an injury or were injured here...so really had no expectations. I honestly thought Canada would have the disaster of 0 medals like in 2017....but 4 medals and a top 6 placement overall is a strong performance.

 

Gotta feel for the women's 4x400 relay who seem to finish 4th at every major event lol.

Strange facts:

 

Even though Team Poland performance in Eugene was "nothing special", pretty average tbh, we are still the top European team in the medal table.

The stats don't show the real strength here. There's no way Poland will be the top team at the European champs later this summer.

I haven't watched it live but it looks like Polish TV was so focused on some boring people talking in the studio that they missed Tobi Amusan WR in the live broadcast last night... ehh...

And then official results from the second semi turned out to be app. -0.1 sec faster than the first unnoficial ones, so our commentators kept saying that there might have been sth wrong with the timing as well.

 

Hope they are wrong here. Those were too excellent runs by her, both in the semi and in the final.

    • River Flow in the Fitzroy River, Rockhampton: Olympics/Paralympics Rowing/Canoe Venue With some concerned with river flow unfairly affecting some rowers/canoe paddlers more than others in both types of races, Rockhampton Regional Council said the months of July and August, when the Olympic/Paralympic competitions will be held traditionally saw the least need for the Fitzroy Barrage to open in response to river flows. Queensland Senator Matt Canavan also says: “Rowing authorities, who wanted the rowing held elsewhere, have raised the issue of the streamflow of the Fitzroy river, but this question has locals scratching their heads as much as the crocodile hype has.” “The Olympic Games are due to be held in winter, and Rockhampton gets barely any rain then.” “A recent hydrological study of the Fitzroy concluded that the river falls to almost zero flow in the winter months.” “World rowing rules state that courses should have no significant current, which is generally interpreted as a streamflow velocity of 0.1m per second or less to ensure fairness across lanes.” “Data from the Fitzroy River shows that in July and August (when the Games will occur) flow rates are below this threshold 99.9 per cent of the time.” “Indeed, the average flow rate at this time of year is half the recommended threshold. And this data is from a gauge upstream of a weir. The flow rates at the rowing course will be even lower than this.” “World rowing authorities have also been flexible on these rules for the Los Angeles games in 2028.” “The rowing in LA will occur at the Marine Stadium at Long Beach.” “This rowing course is connected to the ocean and affected by tides.” “Flow rates in the waters surrounding the course (in LA) have been measured at up to 0.2m per second, double the recommended threshold.” “Marine Stadium at Long Beach has been approved despite this.” “And the rowing course in LA will be the shortest in Olympic history at just 1500m, rather than the standard 2000m.” “Unlike LA, the Fitzroy River is not impacted by tides because barrages control flows from the ocean.” “And, unlike LA, neither the streamflow rules nor the length of the course will need to be compromised to hold Olympic rowing at Rockhampton.” * * * * * * So both World Rowing and the International Canoe Federation (ICF) will need to do their inspections and technical assessments during July/August which is when the Olympic/Paralympic competitions will be held.   * * * * * *    The actual Rockhampton Rowing Course for racing is in this link.  
    • No Crocodile Concerns - Olympic Rowing Course, Fitzroy River - Rockhampton   From ABC News Australia:   Crocodile farm owner John Lever, who has been working with the animals for more than 40 years, said the population in the river should not be a concern and could be managed. "I think we have to look at it sensibly. It's a great opportunity ... it's a fabulous river," Mr Lever said.   "Crocodiles are most active at night and there won't be night-time activities. Crocs are actively feeding at the water's edge and the rowing will be held over deep water."   Mr Lever is a long-time advocate of the government re-categorising the stretch of the river where rowing is held as an active removal zone to have crocodiles surveyed, trapped and removed.   He said crocodiles were less active in winter when the Olympics were expected to be held (in July/August winter time).   "You're more likely to get hit by a bus on the way to the boat ramp than you are to be taken by a croc," he said.   "In the winter time when the water temperatures go right down, the crocodiles become lethargic and don't eat much because they can't digest food.”
