if they are among the programs for which they have the internet rights, once the live broadcast is over, in a few minutes they should become available (but sometimes there are bugs and problems and in this case most likely they will never be available)...

 

meanwhile, if they are among those programs for which they don't have the internet rights (mainly tv series and movies not on tv for the first time, whose rights are already in the bag of service like amazon prime and/or netflix), then there's no chance for them to become available...

 

however, everything related to the swimming worlds should be available as soon as the live broadcast is over (except for unexpected bugs, as written before)...

Thanks. It took a while (at 14:00 it wasn't available yet) but the one of 08:25 is available now so time to see what the Dutch women did :d

medal for Mexico :thumbup: Congrats @mrv86 

Thank you... as with the men in this event, it wasn't a medal I expected as this has been our worst event since 2012.

They were regular enough to earn that medal, even when the judges tried to award the Russians enough points in their last dive.

 

Curious fact is that Paola Espinosa earned her first World Championships in this same event, with former partner Laura Sanchez, back in 2003.

Disaster for :MEXGabriela Agundez :wall:

S complete exhibition of poor attitude and lack of good skills. I wonder why do Mexican judges pick her over other divers. Only the last dive was an acceptable one, but at that point it was too late. Alejandra Orozco was close to repeat that disaster with that mediocre last dive, but she managed to qualify for the semifinal, where she will likely be eliminated. That level where she managed to be on par with Espinosa and earn silver are long gone. Hope Estrella & Del Angel beat them next year in the World Cup selective process.

 

Now, the divers I expect to get the 12 quotas:

 

:AUS WU; :CANBENFEITO; :CAN McKAY; :CHN CHEN; :CHN LU; :GBR TOULSON; :GER KURJO; :ITA BATKI; :JPN KANETO; :MAS PAMG; :USA MAGANA; :USA SCHNELL

 

Dark Horses: :GER WASSEN & :NED van DUIJN

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
