52.04 on Sjöström (flying start), why Did she not race the individual 100, she starts to get lazy by age  :lol: At least now she gets medals for racing relays, not like for example in Rio, destroying individual chances by racing chanceless relays

The women's 200m butterfly podium was a sort of embodiment of me and my wife's family. :lol: My wife is Bosnian, I'm Danish and my wife's uncle has been living in Italy for the most of his adult life and is married to an Italian woman.

 

There was a big satisfaction with this result in the family to say the least. :d

I am in the process of creating a new political party whose main purpose will be to make a law which punishes any Italian who claps over the anthem from start to finish by chopping their hands off.

Also: lapped runners who don’t get out of the way.

Brilliant Italia making an US/Russia like sweep at the Championships :clap: Hopefully they can continue the trajectory and become a regular threat to the super powers US, Australia, GB and China.

very, very difficult...now we have a golden generation with Ceccon, Martinenghi, Miressi, Razzetti, Burdisso and Quadarella and we also are lucky to take advantage of the particular political situation of these days...

 

but I don't think we'll be able to sustain that...in a few years we're gonna pay a very high prize to the covid stop between 2019 and 2022, when most of our sports suffered a big loss of kids practicing sports, especially swimming and combat disciplines, which weren't allowed to restart in full until late last year if not even this year...

 

and if we add what's gonna happen in the next months/years after September's elections, we're destined to a quick decline...

Don't be pessimistic!  :d I'm really impressed by Italian sport in general these last years (it makes a lot of jealous persons here in France..)! Congrats to your team! You will continue the "razzia" with open water swimming. 😌

Revised Timetable for the Open Water Swimming.  I'm guessing "Mixed" in the sense that marathons and race walks are mixed - ie men go first, women follow a few minutes later.

 

 

19/08/2022 09:00    Open Water    Mixed 10km
20/08/2022 09:00    Open Water    Mixed 5km
21/08/2022 07:00    Open Water    Mixed 25km
21/08/2022 13:30    Open Water    Mixed Team 4x1250m

    • I read now that Valentina Rodini will be in the new team of Tizzano + Galtarossa and Martini. I was probably in such an information bubble on Instagram that I thought that only Abbagnale was running a campaign and had a team of people around him. That's why I was surprised by his defeat + the fact that, for example, Rodini supports his rival. But as I wrote, for me the change in the general coach position is a plus. We need a new opening and a new impulse: Cattaneo had his best results in Tokyo and then he only explained that his rowers were running away abroad to the USA to study and that's why he had worse results. Ok, except that it's the same in Romania and Greece but they results are comparable or better. It's obvious that no one here will make the UK or the Netherlands, because we don't have such resources and money but I think we can repeat the Romanian results (2 gold - 3 silver in Paris) and that will be a much better result than the 2 silver in this year.
    • Abbagnale boasted that he had 80 per cent a few days before the vote (I still have the screen) and ran again as a result of a power deal. Not a great loss.   I have doubts about the new technical director though, you can't announce him during the congress, brandishing the scalp of the Abbagnale era technical staff (who then, were Crispi's men). Let's hope there are no rifts between the new staff and the athletes, it had to be handled better.
    • I was surprised by Abbagnale's defeat. I thought he was a sure of victory, since he decided to run - I read some source that he didn't know if he would start before Paris 2024. What do you think about it?

    • Cattaneo was good but his peak was in Tokyo 2021. Then there was such stabilization - stagnation. In Paris the result was in line with expectations but without the wow effect. They threw everything that was best into the quadruple sculls and it was enough for a only silver. Now without the lightweight sculls in LA I think that radical changes are needed to remain competitive. Previously there was a 3-year Olympic cycle due to Covid, so big changes weren`t good but now I think the time is right. Although of course more funds are needed for this sport in Italy, because even the best coach will not overcome this vel our men`s alpine skiing sector
    • @Gianlu33 we posted the same (great) news at the same time  
    • Davide Tizzano (1996 Olympic Champion, men's double sculls) is the new President of the Italian Federation, as he defeated the (now former) President Giuseppe Abbagnale by a very small margin (52% to 48%) in last week's federal elections   and he's already at work to make up for the last 8 disappointing years (at least in terms of Olympic success): his first move is bringing back home  Antonio Colamonaci  who made  great in the past 8 years   https://www.oasport.it/2024/11/canottaggio-cambia-la-direzione-tecnica-dellitalia-arriva-il-guru-che-ha-reso-grande-la-romania/   let's see if he can make  great again, now
