our team made it to Baku at the end. for few days they were afraid that there will be more doping cases in the team and the whole team is probably contaminated, they were almost ready to send everybody home but no more news "so far" and they traveled to Baku.

 

maybe those two kids (happened to be roommates) took something or ate something together.  I guess we will never know

Bit of a shocker for Skylar Park in her round of 16 match - it looked like she'd done enough in the last few seconds of the second round to level the match but the video replay went against her.

Disappointing result for  Jade Jones. In a few of her recent competitions, she hasn't shown the kind of consistency that we are used to seeing with her.

 

I still expect her to qualify for Paris but not sure that she will be getting the same level of hype from the BBC this time around (which may actually end up working in her favour) 

 

Bradley Sinden on the other hand, just keeps going on about his business.

@phelps Uh, I need an explanation because  Luana Márton became a World Champion at the age of 17 in an Olympic weight class. 

 

What. The. Fuck. This came out of nowhere. First ever Hungarian gold in a women's events at the Taekwondo Worlds. And we just had our first ever gold last year thanks to Omar Salim. Crazy stuff happening in Hungarian taekwondo, we didn't even have a single Olympic quota for 20 years and now we are winning gold medals at the WCh.

it's for Independent Neutral Athletes, but since INA is already the Indonesian global signature, they used the French version of the signature, which is AIN
