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.

-52kg: Uta Abe

-57kg: Haruka Funakubo

    • After four weekends of winter sports, we are slowly entering the middle of the winter season . And, as usual, it's time for statistics that I don't know which theared to put in      After 29 events, 20 different NOCs was already on the podium. After several seasons, Uzbekistan is also back on the podium thanks to figure skating (and two former Russians).   This weekend will be all about ice sports, with a total of 13 events: 4 in figure skating (first stage in Europe) and 9 in short track (second stage in Montreal, since SLC was cancelled)
    • World Boxing approved seven new applications from the National Federations in Andorra, Belgium, Iraq, Lithuania, Madagascar, Kyrgyzstan and Thailand. 
    • Out of curiosity, I listened to a few podcasts about Turkmenistan today. This country has very large deposits of natural gas. In the 1990s, a simple a ordinary people lived quite well there. In the early 21st century, Turkmenistan signed several unfavorable gas deals with China and has practically gone bankrupt since then. 1/3 of the population (about 2 million out of 6 million- mostly young people) emigrated, mainly to Turkey, India, etc. The future of this country is blacka and uncertain. I don't know what other options they have? Russia, Turkey, the EU? Of course, in terms of selling gas. Perhaps sanctions of Russia's and isolation due to the war in Ukraine would be a chance for Turkmenistan to establish economic relations with the EU, but the new president would probably have to loosen and a little liberate up his country's domestic politics.
    • A friend of mine who visited 97 countries of the world be in Turkmenistan (with Kunshamara, are the onlyones i know) and he tell me something that never see in another country: his presence was enough to make nervous to all the people, in restaurants, markets, etc, the presence of an "outsider" generate that.
