NearPup 2,379 Posted August 2, 2021 #1711 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Pavan / Humana-Parades make quick work of Liliana / Baquerizo to advance to the quarterfinals. They are still to lose a set.

Surlympics 320 Posted August 2, 2021 #1713 Share Posted August 2, 2021 what is with our wrestling team now, they cant even make it out of the first round anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NearPup 2,379 Posted August 2, 2021 #1714 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Sure looks like the first ever Olympics without a medal for Canada in women's wrestling and Canada's worst Olympics in wrestling since 1988. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NearPup 2,379 Posted August 2, 2021 #1716 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Actually wrestling was tied for our longest medal streak in the Olympics, looks like rowing will take sole possession of that title now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james89 539 Posted August 2, 2021 #1717 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Watch one of the men win a wrestling medal ? Has something radically changed with the national program recently - even the 2016 result wasnt great but we had qualified more people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the talent has aged and no good young talent has risen to replace them. Youth results do not look promising either. So it must be a finding talent issue.

Surlympics 320 Posted August 2, 2021 #1720 Share Posted August 2, 2021 and can someone also explain why Russia was banned for two years for state sponsored doping yet their whole team who qualified is allowed to compete here in Tokyo ? They didn't have any extra doping controls or vetting process they had to go through. They are dominating certain sports, do you believe it's actual talent or results from doping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
