Clearly a move aimed for a predicted German gold medal. Like Irena Szewinska was always handing out medals in hammer or race walking back in the day :lol:

Yeah, I believe at the Olympics IOC members get first choice of which events where they can hand out medals, so they always pick one where a national hero is favoutite.

:SUI Maria Ugolkova - sounds like a Russian whose wealthy parents obtained Swiss citizenship? :p

Made their money in coal-mining?  :afro:

Summer Mcintosh at age 15 wins her first major world individual medal! Breaks 4 mins and the new NR! Not bad for a 15 year old!

 

(She did win the silver medal in the 400m at the short course worlds )

Only 4th swimmer after Ledecky, Titmus and Pellegrini to break the 4 minute at only 15yo. Crazy.

 

This was the last gold for Ledecky in the 400 on a major meet. Titmus and McIntosh gonna dominate this race in the next years.

What a finish by Australia, going from 8th at the half way mark to second. Chalmers destroyed everyone.

That was very entertaining. Hope the next days will be even better.

 

 

Congrats, Canada! 
And I wonder if Marchand gets gold for France on first day in Paris 2024. Hopefully he can keep this form for next two years and maybe still improve.

And a first small success for Team Poland. No repeat from Tokyo. This time half of a team didn’t have to head back home before the competition even started. 💪
