pretty disappointing quarters, yesterday...all of them with the eventual winner never in doubt, just 4 one-man show after another...

 

and now, when it really matters, we're down to the usual Egyptian domination with 3 of them against a lone European hope in both the women and the men's competitions...

 

congrats to Egypt...

 

but a bit more balance and "diversity" would only be a plus for the game...

so, Egypt will retain both of their titles, but we're going to have a new World Champion among the girls as among the men, since both Mohamed El Shorbagy and Raneem El Welily lost in the semifinals...

 

and we also have the final medal table set before the finals, with Egypt destroying the field with 2 Gold, 2 Silver and 2 Bronze medals and France and Germany sharing the remaining 2 Bronze medals...
