But I don't think it'll be easy for gold in Paris for Neeraj unless he improves further to 90+. A NR in steeplechase for Parul was good. Long jumpers have been dissapointing. Not entirely happy with the overall performance. Don't forget the excellent performance from your men's 4x400m squad. 5th and 6th in javelin throw as well.

Pakistan has a much bigger population. Medals at the athletics world championships: India (1.5 billion people): 1 Norway (5.4 million people): 4 Norway has roughly 0.3 % of the indian population, but 4 times as many medals.

OlympicsFan 783 Posted August 27, 2023 #1865 Share Posted August 27, 2023 First ever world championships for Germany without a medal. Number of top 8 results: 12 12 12 11 10 9 7 7 Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Rafa Maciel 1,404 Posted August 27, 2023 #1866 Share Posted August 27, 2023 So with the flurry of world championships and Olympic quotas over, we can all have a week to relax watching the US Open ready for the Rowing World Championships next week right?

Yep, although September is another really busy month in terms of qualification. Things get a litle bit more sedate after that for a few months.

OlympicsFan 783 Posted August 27, 2023 #1869 Share Posted August 27, 2023 South Korea with only 1 top 8 result, they are in the same boat as Germany to some degree. Obviously South Koreans have reached a new evolutionary stage. They just don't give a fuck about childish games. Most countries need sports as a replacement for war though. Also interesting that Denmark is pretty much nonexistant in sports. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.
