Vektor 3,195 Posted July 4, 2021 #104 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Here's an interesting fun fact: this is the first time ever that a swimmer is the Hungarian flag bearer at the Opening ceremony. I think this is mostly because swimmers usually aren't able to participate as they have events the next day. I am sure Egerszegi and/or Darnyi would have been flag bearers during the 90s if their events weren't so close to the ceremony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepharoah 2,292 Posted July 4, 2021 #108 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Here in Egypt they announce the name just a day before Opening Ceremony really don't know why, hopefully they'll make it boy and girl and I think Alaaeldin Abouelkassem and Hedaya Malak are the ones that deserve this honour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
