right now our friend @MHSN will be jumping for joy...Iran beat China and basically secured an Olympic spot (now they are almost sure to be the second best Asian team behind the world's no.1 KOR)...

 

:d not "now" because it was an hour ago. and it was a bit scary since China had 5-6 pts lead at some point because of Abedini's poor performance but Pakdaman saved the day.

 

yeah I think it's safe to say the Olympic spot is secured now. :toast:

women's individual Sabre, Quarterfinals

 

:RUS Sofya Velikaya vs :HUN Anna Marton

:FRA Cecilia Berder vs :GRE Theodora Gkountoura

:ROU Bianca Pascu vs :USA Anne-Elizabeth Stone

:UKR Olga Kharlan vs :UKR Alina Komashchuk

 

 

8 girls from 7 different Nations involved...

Ukriane is the only Country having 2 fencers, but unfortunately for them now they have to face each other in the quarterfinals, which means that they are going to win a medal (a safe medal) and don't have any chance to double it up...

and once again we have at least 1 big surprise from a non traditional fencing Nation...this time is the Greek girl, Gkountoura...

I thought that it was strange how Italy only has one chance left for an individual gold, so I started searching for the last WCh where Italy didn't win any gold medals in the individual events. And it's 1995, they won two team gold medals that year, but no individual gold medals.

yeah...don't remind me those stats...it's so painful to watch this championships...

 

and now big drama in women's team epee...GER is 22-21 ahead after 8 of the 9 assaults...Fiamingo vs Ndolo the last and decisive match up (basically we have already lost before the start)...

by the way, another impressive stat is the streak of Italian and/or Russian wins in women's individual Foil...now we are at 21 consecutive ITA or RUS individual gold medals...:yikes:

 

the last non-ITA or non-RUS winner was :GER Sabine Bau in La Chaux-de-Fonds (SUI) in 1998...

    • I love that it is more straightforward in relation to the number of quotas and does not allow possible problems as it was in Tokyo and Paris.
    • I love the judo qualification system, for me is the best in all disciplines. It combines a strong circuit, and it allows 100 or so countries to participate in.   So, maybe, if UWW does its job properly, it will be a good thing.
    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind ,
