We now know the first countries guaranteed to medal at this edition.  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  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.
