here we go again...

 

that bunch of idiots managing the Italian Rowing team tried for the billionth time to pursue the dream of having a competitive Eight and they missed out once again

 

but what's even worse, they blew many qualification chances in doing that and therefore, despite a record that might look very good on average, we're now approaching the moment that many (myself in first place) feared: the lowest point ever in the glorious history of the sport

 

I'm officially disgusted by our officials, coaches and also by many athletes, who did show a really bad attitude and lack of fighting spirit since the preliminary heats :facepalm: :hairpull:

Amazing comeback by :ROU, gotta agree

If the lights light up exactly at the correct moment, he was definitely first, since his light went on first. Not sure if those lights are 100% accurate though?

48 LIB                          

So my hit rate on finalists was 63/84 which is 75%. Of the 72 boats that have secured qualification at this point 11 weren't ranked in a qualifying position although positively no nation had multiple boats fall into this category which there wasn't any fundamental flaws with my rankings. 61/72 (84.7%) in terms of boats qualified at this point is probably a little dissapointing given that the last few qualifying spots are likely to be more volatile. There are gauranteed to be at least 8 more boats that werent ranked in a qualifying position that will qualify. Therefore the absolute best case scenario for my rankings would be a hit rate of 95/114 (83.3%). My target was 80% so I will probably need to get very lucky to hit that.

What a bad time for German, Polish and Canadian rowing compare Time before Tokyo

Germany only had 7 boats in Tokyo as well and they still have 6 chances to qualify here in B-finals + A-final in M8+.
I see good chances to qualify in W1x, M2x and medium chances for M8+, LM2x and W4x, so they could end up with 5-6 quotas  in the end which is more or less identical to Tokyo (one boat qualified in Lucern last time).

    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
    • Ukraine twice in one day defeated Italy and France, like what the heck? 
    • Qualified for the Grand Prix Final   Men: 1.  Ilia Malinin 2.  Yuma Kagiyama 3.  Shun Sato  4.  Adam Siao Him Fa 5.  Kevin Aymoz 6.  Daniel Grassl   Final Standings   Women: 1.  Kaori Sakamoto 2.  Amber Glenn 3.  Wakaba Higuchi 4.  Hana Yoshida 5.  Mone Chiba 6.  Rino Matsuike   Final Standings   Pairs: 1.  Deanna Stellato-Dudek / Maxime Deschamps 2.  Riku Miura / Ryuichi Kihara 3.  Minerva Fabienne Hase / Nikita Volodin 4.  Sara Conti / Niccolo Macii 5.  Anastasiia Metelkina / Luka Berulava 6.  Ellie Kam / Danny O'Shea   Final Standings   Ice Dance: 1.  Lilah Fear / Lewis Gibson 2.  Madison Chock / Evan Bates 3.  Piper Gilles / Paul Poirier 4.  Charlene Guignard / Marco Fabbri 5.  Evgeniia Lopareva / Geoffrey Brissaud 6.  Marjorie Lajoie / Zachary Lagha   Final Standings   The Grand Prix Final will be held in Grenoble, from 5 to 8 December.
