I am not an expert, so maybe i missed something, but this seems really unexpected. Only possible explanation i see: Mexico has one elite athlete (who is probably better than all german athlete), but their 2nd/3rd athlete is worse than the 2nd/3rd german athlete. Of course i won't complain about this result. Worst possible outcome for Germany now is two silver medals, which is probably more than expected. Still the individual results and the men's team result were rather underwhelming.

 

Edit: How did Mexico manage to only score 45 points in the first round?

Nah, Mexico just had problems today (maybe with the wind?) and Germany won because they was (surprisingly) better. I see the German the clear favourite for the gold today.

Semifinals for France, so one between :MEX or :NED will back at home with empty hands.

I have not much doubt in who it will be, sadly. The poor aftertaste would mainly be within the poor communication by WA. I mean, this team is not a top contender and will have a rough time qualifying at all, in that sense Mexico would deserve this spot way more.

    • Vast majority of Americans will disagree with you. That's all that counts. I dont see many differences in so called fascism between democrats and republicans. Both were bombing any country they picked, both were ruining systems they wanted to.  I prefer reds more because they are at least honest about it. Also, i dont like what this ultraliberalism brought to our whole Earth. Whoever opposes this level of insanity will have my vote.  
    • YEC Semi-Finals are set:   Aryna Sabalenka vs Cori Gauff Barbora Krejcikova vs Zheng Qinwen   Krecikova beating Gauff in two sets means Iga Świątek was eliminated with 2-1 record. Sabalenka clinched Year-End #1 after winning the first two matches and Świątek not winning all three RR matches before already.
    • He is fascist. Even use the same narration like famous german/Austrian painter.

    • I remember a couple of years during the athletics worlds in Oregon one of the British athletes wasn’t able to enter the US due to visa issues. I feel like something similar will happen in LA, and I don’t envisage Trump succumbing to an appeal to let an unfortunate athlete in.
    • thats true. If anyone observes the US election map then he can see that Harris dominated in NorthEast states and the Eastern Coast, exactly where the big economic centres are based (New York, New Jersey, Washington, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco etc).   Also what i observe regarding politics in western europe is that Socialdemocratic/centre-left parties have become extremely pro-market and even neo-liberal and some traditional right parties have become euroscepticist and protectionist, exactly the opposite as it was in 70s-80s
    • How about this?   "2026 Winter Olympics Cancelled after USA Withdraw After US President is Banned From Italy Due To His Criminal Convictions"  
    • Yeah, Trump is very pro-Olympics. I imagine he's pretty excited that he will get to open the games   Visas for some nations have always been tough and I do imagine some qualified individuals will fail to enter the United States (regardless who is President), but the IOC will likely sweep it under the rug.
    • This is reaching the climax now. If Khelif's lawyers take this to court then they have to believe they can win the case. If the case gets quietly dropped before it goes to court you can assume they have no confidence in winning
