There was this Italian girl who competed for both India and Togo in alpine skiing. Essentially she just followed her father moving clothing factories between nations (don't quote me on that). Not sure if she ever raced for Italy though. :p

It took 26 years. but :SVK finally won a medal at the WJCh.

 

We send only 2 boys to Guayaquil and one of them won Bronze. Benjamín Maťašeje in the -100kg.

 

Last time :SVK won a medal at this tournament, was Gold of Jozef Krnáč (Athens 2004 silver medalist) in Porto 1996 :p

quite a good championship for Italy, great among the girls (1 gold, 1 silver, 3 bronze, all 9 in the top 7), not so exciting among the boys (1 5th and 1 7th place only)...

 

what's good in the boys' section is the fact that the best result came in the -100kg category, with our guy only losing to the eventual gold medal winner in the semifinal bout (and in the bronze medal bout)...

 

what's not so good in the women's section is the fact that our super-talent, 18 year young world champion, plays her judo in the -52kg class, where we already have our 2-time olympic medallist Odette Giuffrida (and there's no chance to put one of the 2 girls in a different weight class until 2024 at least)...:facepalm:

 

in general, Japan returned on the world scene after last year's absence and they did it in style by dominating the field with 6 gold medals in the 14 individual events and then in the team event (of course)...

 

the remaining 8 gold medals went to 8 different Countries (6 from Europe, 2 from Central Asia)...

:JPN Japan already announced the team for the 2023 World Championships (Doha, May 2023) :yikes:

 

most likely, for the 4 weight classes where they decided to put 2 players (every team can only enter 9 men and 9 women, which means that a Country can have max 2 classes per gender with 2 players) it's already the beginning of a tough selection battle looking at Paris 2024.

 

Women

 

-48kg: Natsumi Tsunoda & Wakana Koga

-52kg: Uta Abe

-57kg: Haruka Funakubo

-63kg: Megumi Horikawa & Miku Takaichi

-70kg: Saki Niizoe

-78kg: Shori Hamada

+78 kg: Akira Sone

 

Men

 

-60kg: Naohisa Takato

-66kg: Hifumi Abe & Joshiro Maruyama

-73kg: Soichi Hashimoto

-81kg: Takanori Nagase

-90kg: Kosuke Mashiyama & Sanshiro Murao

-100kg: Kentaro Iida

+100 kg: Tatsuru Saito

    • Just now getting around to these results...glad to see USA win a gold.  Didn't think we were much of a contender here.  Home soil luck?
    • Qualification status that could realistically change this week, barring (except where noted) new time qualifying performances :   Men   500m : pretty much done   1000m : pretty much done   1500m : pretty much done   5000m : one outlier at the moment  Semirunniy. He's currently not qualified for the distance being 18/15 in the rankings and R1 time-wise. He could still punch his ticket :    either by getting into the top 15 with a very good result (a podium or even a win would be needed). If it is at the expanse of  Henriksen or, less likely,  Swings, then the loser is out. If it is at the expanse of any other, then  Sasaki is out.  or by hoping Lorello gets into the top 15 at the expanse of Henriksen or Swings. or by going faster than Sasaki (6'08''834) which seems reachable after his 10k, even in Hamar.   10000m : once again Henriksen is on the bubble. If  Maly, Petzold of  Farthofer gets into the top 9 at the expanse of Malfatti or Snellink, then he's out.    Mass-start : not much at stake considering most of the reserve skaters will already receive an additional quota - at the moment    . Morino  will try to enter top 32 and be in those additional quota spots.    Team pursuit : pretty much done   Women   500m : pretty much done   1000m : with  Thorup not cleared to participate one more spot is up for grabs.  Scholz would need to be in front of both Herzog (done as she's not entered) and Czerwonka (7 points) after this final week.  Silaeva would be left out.    1500m : Lamarche not competing and  Zofia Braun being promoted to A division, Poland has got a real shot at a second quota. Braun will need to stay in front of Scholz and Weidemann, who could still finish ahead of her depending on how good Braun fares in A division.  Smedding would suffer from a Polish rise.   3000m : match-up between  Yang and  Horikawa only separated by 3 points. At the moment Yang is out (R2) but if they exchange position in the standings then Horikawa is out (R1). They could also both finish ahead of Hofmann, at the expanse of  Golubeva ultimately.  Jasch has a small shot at a second German quota too, by edging the former two skaters, eliminating them.    5000m : pretty much done   Mass-start :  Santo Rodrigues is hanging on by a thread. The cruelty of it is that those immediately behind her -    - will get an aditional spot anyways, so it does not really matter if they finish in the top 24 ahead of her, except it would allow France to enter a second skater and two girls in the MS.   Team pursuit : three-way asymetrical tie for the last SOQP spot between   and , all in division A. Norway needs to beat both as they can't rely on a time Q, Kazakhstan needs to beat Norway to ensure (if they fail to beat China) the first SOQT spot and avoid the Italian wild-card*, whereas China is pretty safe. *  is currently out but they "only" need to get into a reserve spot to be qualified, which is going faster than 3'00'92 (or faster than Norway if they too decide to skate faster). They were not far off this mark in Hamar earlier this year but the team was in a better shape overall. 
    • Finally got around to updating post 2 with results from last weekend...that's a lot of German and Austrian flags!
