Won is on his way to get a medal from the B group. I wonder who the last global medalist from a B group is, Om in Beijing 2008?

Two B-group lifters won a total medal in London 2012. :POL Tomasz Zieliński won a bronze medal in men's 94kg and :CMR Madias Nzesso won a bronze medal in women's 75kg.

But to be honest, none of them "won" their medal at the 2012 Olympics. They were awarded their medals after some of the other medalists were disqualified because of doping. 

 

And by the way, Om won his gold medal in London 2012. :p

I wonder if they really awarded that medal to Zielinski or not. (I know he is listed as 3rd, but that doesn't mean he received that medal) if I'm not wrong I think IOC had a policy of not re-allocation medal to athletes with doping history.

    • I am going to use this as evidence for my belief that the only way for baseball to continue growing is to increase the importance of International tournaments.   Because shocassing stars in those environments is how the MLB can grow their viewership abroad.
    • If this were Milan from 20 years ago, it would be a success but currently it`s just a European average team and on top of that it is not in top form. Milan's defense this season resembles Swiss cheese.
    • Bologna is unfortunately is a team for the Conference League, not the Champions League   Juventus are plagued by injuries and are struggling. On top of that they have a terrible schedule in the CL. In their case qualifying for the play-offs would be a success in this season but I'm not sure how many points they will need to do that. Actually they chave 8 points.
    • Four events with medals awarded halfway into the first day, and already six NOCs are on the medal table 
    • First day of sporting action today. There's livestreams available on the official website: https://www.bolivarianos2024.pe/envivo/   PanamSports Channel should be broadcasting events as well.
    • Pretty crazy, just imagine if they won the World Baseball Classic (though personally I equate the two pretty closely).
