If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

thepharoah 2,292 Posted November 7, 2018 #383 Share Posted November 7, 2018 very disappointing performance by the Egyptian Qatari Fares el bakh , he could have easily won bronze in total today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MHSN 3,230 Posted November 7, 2018 #385 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I didn't expect Tian Tao to really challenge Moradi but he did. I think Moradi wasn't totally focused today. he should made that 237kg but 3 gold medals and 3 WRs. this is a great result. but this guy Tian will be tougher next time, Sohrab better more prepared.

I know China can send only 4 but I assume he is a strong candidate to fill one of those 4 slots. or maybe China decides to send 4 weightlifters in 4 lightest weights , that's what I hope for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
