OlympicsFan 791 Posted August 30, 2019 #82 Share Posted August 30, 2019 For those of you who still dream about making the olympics ... , it is never too late to start: Oliver Zeidler only started rowing less than 3 years ago and now he could win the gold medal in men's single sculls at the world championships. Here is a link to a video that shows his first attempts in rowing (starting around 03:50, if it isn't geoblocked): https://www.sportschau.de/weitere/rudern/video-einer-fuer-den-einer-der-ausnahmeruderer-oliver-zeidler-100.html phelps 1 Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Too bad that we don't have another strong male lightweight athlete and Galambos will miss Tokyo because of that. And currently the Hungarian quota situation is pretty terrible in this sport.
