and now we also recorded the worst disappointment among the few boats that at least qualified to the Games :facepalm: :hairpull:

 

so, we finish this championship with 4 OQP and 2 medals (no gold)...worse than the most pessimistic preview :bones: :zip:

To be fair you do have 3 golds in the non-Olympic classes and Italy remains the top lightweight nation, it just didn't quite come together for the Olympic boats.

what a farcical day (week) of rowing   basically, the draw in the preliminary heats did it all   once you got stuck in lanes 5 and 6, the championship was over even before the star

Once again we witness the reason why the eights are the iconic race of rowing and will always be. You can't buy magic

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?

Is 6th not the worst outcome?

Well technically yes, but Italy is so far behind the rest of the field, that anything other than a 6th would've been a massive surprise. Also, as @Rafa Maciel said, if Canada failed to qualify a boat here, we would be eligible for the Continental Qualifiers (and likely two extra quotas).

11 boats qualified for the Olympic Games, it's absolutely fantastic, 44 athletes out of a possible 45. Rowing is by far the number 1 sport in Romania, I hope for some very good Olympic Games from the Romanian rowers. Good for them.:bowdown:

      meanwhile the 2 next best Baseball Leagues in the World have also reached the Final Series   in , the 2024 Japan Series will feature the Fukuoka Softbank Hawks (back to business after the awful 2023 season), winner of the Pacific League, and the surprising Yokohama DeNA Bay Stars, winners of the Central League after an amazing series against the heavily favoured Tokyo Giants   the Japan Series (best-of-7 games, 2-3-2 format) will start next Saturday, October 26th in Yokohama @ 6.30 p.m. local time     in  South Korea, instead, the 2024 Korean Series will see the KIA Tigers from Gwangju facing the Samsung Lions from Daegu   the series is a best-of-7 matchup, but with an unusual 2-2-3 format, with the best seeded teams (KIA in this case) hosting not only 4, but 5 of the potential 7 games    game #1 was scheduled for earlier, Today, but it was suspended in the top of the 6th inning (Samsung leading 1-0, runners on 1st & 2nd, 0 out) due to heavy rain   it should resume Tomorrow @ 4 p.m. local time (before game #2 @ 6.30 p.m. local time), but the weather forecast is awful also for Tomorrow and there's a good chance that there won't be any ball played all day long

      It`s all the more strange that Italy qualified two womens for Paris, even though this discipline has been in a great crisis in our country for many years - since we stopped naturalizing Chinese some 20 years ago.

      2 medals is the historic success of Table Tennis.     Barbora Balážová Gold and Tatiana Kukuľková bronze in W Doubles.   Funny (or not so-funny) enough... both missed Paris 2024 by a few... Balážová ended first non-qualified and Kukuľková 4th under the line... Still can not believe we failed to qualify at least one female to the Games, despite our womens team was still in qualifying position one year before Paris as 2022 WCh quarterfinalists ...   All this Olympic qualification really sucked... especially for us

      I expected Vonn to return in a speed event, but guess she wants to test herself first on a slower GS. Though at 40 i think she won't be doing many GSs and concentrate on the DH & SG. And hopefully she does that, because a full World Cup season should be out of her aim.   As for Hirscher, he must really be scared of Odermatt breaking his records

      Awards time!  Here's the World Athletics nominations for Track Runner of the year.    Nominees announced for Track Athlete of the Year 2024 | World Athletics   And for Field Event athlete of the year, although both of these choices are pretty bloody obvious.  High demand for yellow and blue flowers, put it that way.     Nominees announced for Field Athlete of the Year 2024 | World Athletics
