There you go. I'd like to read Chinese media, I have a feeling he'll be declared a legend there.

3rd Italian record of the evening! Congrats Scozzoli :yes

Why do Italians swim NR's at major events? Take the Dutch example: one swims NR's and PB's at minor events, much better! And then stays far away from it when it matters :p

Duncan Scott and Mack Horton are my new idols. It is just so sad that they feel the need to do this, because they don't trust FINA to do the right thing.

Apparently FINA hasn't learned anything from what happened to UCI some years ago.

Sun acting like a little bitch on the podium, surprise. If there's one swimmer who is one day gonna get his teeth knocked out... :p (not saying anyone should, just saying it not be undeserved :d )

 

the problem is that the opposite (Sun getting someone knocked out) is a lot more probable...:facepalm:

Park Tae-hwan also got disqualified for faulty start in 2012 (but got reinstated later).

 

I'm surprised that they didn't at least postpone the medal ceremony.

 

Fina has to pay the bills somehow.

because once in our lifetime we've got the right timing in our set-up...

 

but normally it's not the case (see the Rio flop, except for Paltrinieri/Detti)...

    • Totallympics Annual International Song Contest 2025      Thank you Slovenia! Argentina get their second 12 points of this year's contest to keep their hopes of a podium finish very much alive.   Big points also for Italy who become the 3rd nation to breach the 100-point barrier and they close the gap to France in 2nd.   That concludes the third session of this year's TISC Annual. Ireland maintain the lead as they have from the very start of the contest. Their lead now stands at 28 points which is sizeable though not insurmountable with 8 juries still to vote, including Ireland.   We will take a 1 hour 30 minute break now and will resume the fourth and final session at 19:00 GMT.      Juries Voted: 26/34    1  Ireland 2 136  18  Guatemala   53  2  France 4 108  19  Netherlands   51  3  Italy 11 102  20  Tunisia   50  4  Argentina 12 96  21  Denmark   49  5  Romania   85  22  Poland   48  6  Albania 9 85  23  Sweden 1 46  7  Spain   84  24  Lithuania 3 45  8  Germany 7 84  25  Malta 5 43  9  Canada   74  26  Turkey 10 43  10  Mexico   73  27  Greece   37  11  Serbia   66  28  Slovenia   36  12  Kazakhstan 8 65  29  China   34  13  Portugal   65  30  Bulgaria   32  14  Great Britain 6 63  31  Indonesia   30  15  United States   62  32  Slovakia   28  16  Ukraine   57  33  Brazil   28  17  Israel   55  34  India   15
