i really don't know how come this player of Sierra leone participate here in this games , i can even play better than him , i know Sierra Leone isn't a sporting country especially when it comes to table tennis , but sometimes i feel that some African countries choose players who're just close to someone in the federation to participate instead of their real best players , it may happen here in Egypt ofc. but not to this limit 

 

edit : some good table tennis from him to be honest in 3rd set

Vanuatu beats England in beach volley. Expected, but still.

So now there is basically nothing for like 3 hours and then athletics and swimming starts at the same time...

 

Were they using Pyeongchang scheduling as a role model?

I am impressed by the the INDIAN lawn bowls teams have been doing well ...  no medals till now but came agonisingly close to winning against malta in the womens  fours quarterfinals....Incidently they had won against them in the group .. The mens pairs had also done well .........................   And do remember the competition in this event would be  the best in the world by far as lawns is played mainly in the commonwelth games 

 

In India this sport is unknown so great achievement....
