How does the Mix Judo works? -57, -70, +70 for women and -73, -90, +90 for men. And what happens when the score is 3-3?

Group fight, everyone on the tatami and the team with the most ippons in one minute wins

I'm very dissapointed with this new changes in olympic program.

I only support adding two more team events in fencing.

When I started reading this I was convinced that they will change men's and women's water polo tournament into one mixed water polo tournament.

Maybe they will in 2024 if they continue like this.

News for Armenians and Kosovare out there

Discovery still sub-licensing, this time to APMTV and RTK respectively.

This new swimming event

• 4 x 100m Mixed Medley Relay

looks unfair for both genders. Differences between men and women in breaststroke and backstroke are bigger than in butterfly and freestyle. So the best teams will use man backstroke/ man breaststroke/ woman butterfly/ woman freestyle.

I think Hungary would rather use Hosszú in backstroke instead of butterfly, as they have Cseh and Kenderesi.
