Yeah, unless the site messed up it looks like the group stage didn't have a full round robin.

Seemed they tried to copy FIVB format for the manor tournaments; yet as some pools had less teams, they should hace stick with a full round robin to better balance the knock out draws, which btw were left qay unbalanced in men’s as one out of :CUB / :VEN will leave way too early, giving away the other half to :PUR

We now know the first countries guaranteed to medal at this edition. :PUR:IOC:VEN:CUB will play in the semifinals of men’s team table tennis. First medals will be awarded tomorrow in table tennis and weightlifting according to the schedule.

Actually the first medal has been already awarded yesterday as :DMA already has a bronze in boxing, due to a bye in the first round of the +92k

 

The most disgusting thing is the mediocrity of their NOC to celebrate that kind of thing saying they already had a medal, without the guy even steping to the ring and show his skills.

For small nations like Dominica they take what they can get. Though they have a good chance at winning a medal normally.

Yeah, a lucky draw like that could literally fund a boxing program for the next few years in some nations.

Results system was updated and no longer shows weightlifting finals today. Only medals will be in table tennis. Team finals start in five minutes.

    • Or is Girardelli respected in Austria these days...
    • We must ask our Austrian users if they cheered for Girardelii. But do we have any Austrian users LOL?
    • It's just that Austria had a lot of skiers in that time and we don't have any others among the young ones now.
    • Marco Girardelli went to Luxembourg one day and he had a great career. I doubt he did regret that move.

    • You know, but we still don't know what that was about. Ceccarelli has a difficult character but still changing colors to a country with which you have absolute no connetions? What would you say if Iga Swiatek fell out with the Polish tennis federation and started playing for Luxembourg or Andorra? Certainly not everyone would decide to take such a step, even if they had to give in a little in talks with the federation.    Another thing is that the Italian training system simply doesn`t work. As you can see, there are talents but we don`t know how to train them. Since the golden generation born in 1990-1995 (Brignone, Bassino, Goggia) we haven`t trained anyone who would stand on the podium in giant slalom or slalom in World Cup. So something is wrong. At the beginning of the 21st century we had a large group of good athletes in giant slalom (maybe not at Brignone's level): Karbon, Moelgg, Putzer, Gius, etc., who were able to win World Cups, win World Championship medals, etc. Now we have no one. In women's giant slalom for example: if Brignone and Bassino are gone, even getting to the first 20 in World Cup will be a problem for us.
    • I remember that Lara Gut's family also had a conflict with the Swiss federation at the beginning of her career around 2008/2009 but it was resolved. I remember that the family also wanted to have a greater influence on their daughter's career. It was probably similar here. If there was a will from both sides, an agreement should have been reached. Especially since Colturi has zero ties with Albania. Sinner could have played for Austria sooner, as a person from South Tyrol.
    • Berrettini defeated Kokkinakis in 3 set   And now, it's Sinner time.
    • Well, it was to be expected that Colturi was going to have a breakout result like that sooner or later and the state of Italian alpine skiing will create some very long faces. But hey, if Italy  let their "best" prospect walk because of money then it's their fault. If there was some personal feud between Ceccarelli & federation it's even worse.
    • Stage 3 in Gurgl (AUT)   Women´s Slalom:   1. Mikaela Shiffrin    1:40.22 2. Lara Colturi    1:40.77 3. Camille Rast    1:40.79   Full Final Results HERE
