Bronze medal for Nicholas Santos at 39 years-old. Finally I can say someone older than me is still earning medals.

Maybe I should watch equestrian and shooting competitions a little more.

 

so, basically I have to support Kelly Slater in Surfing...:rofl::facepalm:

What's with top-12 going to the Olympics? :yikes: 

 

the top 12 relays are directly qualified to the Olympics...

 

and it's a rule in force since quite a few editions of the Games

 

then there are 4 spots for each relay left...and in this case the times clocked by the end of the OQR will count...

Yeah but the commentator was talking about individual events, where both Toussaint and Kamminga finished 13th and 'missed a ticket by one position'. I guess it's a Dutch NOC thing then :p

The 19-yaer-old MacNeil, making her worlds debut with the senior national team, turned in the eighth-fastest performance of all-time and is the second-fastest woman in history.

The 50m fly, arguably my favourite event :bowdown:

 

Really? I never liked the butterfly stroke much. It was created in a cheating attempt after all. :p

 

Besides, nobody swims like a butterfly in real life. :lol:

    • Italy will boycott the Azeri stage for protest against the international federation.
    • Likely for Tannheimer, quite unlikely for Galmace Paulin. She's far from being assured to even start in the WC before turning 20. Basically she'd have to get a spot this season, which could actually happen if she takes the extra-ticket at the JWCH. Anyway I don't see her making her way to gold in Oslo. Tänglander has a few seasons to do it, we'll see.       Quite surprisingly so, indeed. Barring her horrendous finish Richard would have made it 2 in one go. We should have some more names in the list in 2025.
    • There are some of Slovakia's finest young squads at the World Juniors in recent years
    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
