It probably favours the American viewers who are not general sports fans, but only want to see a few medals being decided. If you're a fan of Olympics/general sports, no matter the timezone it just sucks when there's hours and hours without finals, and then a boatload of finals crammed in 2-3 hours so you can't see them all, even though there would have been plenty of time to schedule it in such a way that you could actually see them all.

 

Maybe, but there are sports fans who do work during Olympics time and don't have the luxury of staying up all night to watch the events (like me :bye:). I'm not saying it's a good thing, but I see why they did the schedule that way.

 

Of course I will request some vacation time during Tokyo just to watch everything :d

By the way, since I'm kind of a noob on reading schedules, the main question for me is: what's the average time on which the day of sports starts and ends?

 

For our timezone it's from 2:00 am to about 5:00 pm.

 

During 50km race Walking it already starts at 11:pm (the previous day). During the other race walking events and the Marathons it starts at midnight.

always on the Tokyo Olympics...

according to the latest rumors reported by the Italian press, FINA has stated that they do not have anything against the Swimming (semis and) Finals being held in the morning, like it happened in Beijing in 2008...

the official announcement won't be made until September (at least), but it's basically sure that, with the green lights given by the Aquatics World Federation, the Japanese organizers will make the greedy and powerful NBC happy and we're going to relive the (awful) Beijing experience...:cry::facepalm::wall:

      if they will bring him back to the NT (this is the question, not if he comes back or not), surely it will be in the 86kg class   Moldova's case doesn't have any chance, it will be dismissed CAS can't overturn any result on the pitch, unless cheating (doping or blatant corruption) is proven

      ""The most important thing, in my opinion, is mental preparation" - Maria Vynnyk said this on Thursday after winning the first major gold medal; maybe this is where the secret lies. As you said, Ukrainian girls have always been strong, but not dominant at continental level; my conjecture is that the Russian invasion has made them mentally stronger, giving them that extra edge needed to tilt the balance in the final stages of a competition.
