Ingrida Suchánková (left) in Karate and Zuzana Hrašková (Right) in Finswimming --------------------------------------------------------------------- Team Day 2 Results Saturday 9th. KARATE: -61kg Kumite W 3. Ingrida Suchánková Advanced to the Semifinals from 1st Place as winner of her Pool, despite losing already in the opening bout to Haya Jumaa of 2:3, but after her win in the next matches against Alexandra Grande 6:5 and Anna-Johanna Nilsson 4-2 she topped the group B. In the Semifinal she lost to the eventual gold medalist Anita Serogina of 2:3, which send her to the Bronze Medal bout she at the end finished by win 3:1 against Dahab Ali from Spoiler FINSWIMMING: 100m Bi-Fins W 3. Zuzana Hrašková The 400m Bi-Fins World record holder arrived to the games a bit disappointed to not have her strong event in the World Games schedule, but still ended by eventually winning a surprising bronze in her less prefered 100m race. In the lane 1 she had not the best start possible being 7th after 50 meters but a really strong finish catapulted her to the bronze medal position behind the two Hungarian girls and only 0.06 ahead of Antonina Dudek from Spoiler Zuzana Hrašková in Lane 1 (Right) before the start of the Final POWERLIFTING: -72kg Heavyweight W 7.

Bearas 406 Posted July 10, 2022 #252 Share Posted July 10, 2022 wining gold and bronze in Standard Dance There were full expectations for all 3 Lithuanian couples to compete in the final, but our third pair finished 9th in semifinal. Anyway, Sodeika/Sodeikiene finally got their golds, after they were robbed in 2017 and left with the bronze as World Games gold were the only title they were missing. Some chances for podium in drone racing and low chance in orienteering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,193 Posted July 10, 2022 #253 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Silver medal for A. Kvesić and no medal for I. Kvesić in karate. Not an exceptional performance, but not a disaster either. We are now up to three silvers. Beach handball is likely our only chance of a gold medal. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agger 1,609 Posted July 10, 2022 #254 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Pretty bad first day for Denmark but yesterday the bowlers secured two semi finals. Should be at least one medal there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympian1010 7,652 Posted July 10, 2022 #257 Share Posted July 10, 2022 I love that the road speed skating events are taking place on public roads this time.

Olympian1010 7,652 Posted July 10, 2022 #258 Share Posted July 10, 2022 What an entertaining race that was! I’m not sure athletes will and officials will like the course, but that created phenomenal racing. What an endorsement for roller speed skating! gets a gold @hckošice hckošice 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Olympian1010 7,652 Posted July 10, 2022 #259 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Breakdancing has sold out of tickets. It will be interesting to see what people think of it. thiago_simoes 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

dcro 10,193 Posted July 10, 2022 #260 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Refreshing to see Colombia lose (in a non-DQ-galore race). I have no problem with the course. Road cyclist have to tackle road furniture all the time. Same should apply for inline skaters if they wish to compete on the road as well. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
