Is there as much discussion in your countries about race walking 'being ridiculous' and 'why is not every single athlete thrown out?' and 'why is this a sport if clearly everyone breaks the rules all the time' and so on? :p 

 

I mean, outside of European/world athletics championships and the Olympics of course nobody here watches a second of race walking, but during those events, it's the exact same discussion every time :p 

Race walking is largely seen as a joke event in the United States. There might be a bigger following for cornhole and/or spikeball. The few people aware of it spend a lot time making comments like you said.

:JAM Gaule 8.27 and pushes McLeod off the podium in the last round.

:JAM now has three jumpers with standard (if they already did not). They might be one of only a few nations to pull that off.

    • no idea. I just repeated what I read  but I won't be surprised if they make a mistake like this. the officials here are usually terrible in reading the rules. if I remember correctly they sent an Ice hockey team to the Games back in 2017 but most of the players were ineligible to play per IIHF rules and they played some friendlies instead    btw there is a federation, but not an ISU member. Ice Skating (which has a very very limited activity here) was a part of Skating (roller sports) federation but now moved to Skiing federation which officially changed its name to Skiing and Winter Sports Federation.
