Well, this is quite bizzarre...

 

2019 Asian Championships had a Hong Kong judge who withdrew from judging in freestyle because she suddenly didn't feel well. Today she passed away...

:DEN Denmark showed their cards today.

 

Cathrine Dufour & Bohemian - 83.043% :hatoff:

Carina Cassoe Kruth & Danciera - 76.413% :woot:

Anders Dahl & Fidelio - 73.978% - and this is about as high as they will go...

Daniel Bachmann Andersen & Zepter - 73.913% - just too many mistakes :dunno:

Even more impressive second day for the Danes. :bowdown:

 

Cathrine Dufour & Bohemian - 82.681%

Carina Cassoe Kruith & Danciera - 80.106% :hyper:

Daniel Bachmann Andersen & Zepter - 78.745% :hatoff:

Anders Dahl & Fidelio - 75.532%

 

 

Cathrine, Carina and Daniel appear to be the dream team at the moment... But let's wait and see what Anna Kasprzak and much-hyped Nanna Merrald can do. It will also be crucial to gather whether or not Carina can sustain this form.

What the hell. People are already talking about Denmark taking team gold. :lol:

This is a good start, but they have their work cut out if they want to be a shoe-in for any medal.

Yeah, at best this puts them into the conversation for a medal. If they can repeat this performance they will likely get a medal, but the best they could do is silver IMO. Germany would need to have a horrible day to not win team gold in dressage right now.

Would have been one of the medal favorite in the normal world...

That's new (for me)...I thought Tim Lips was one of the many decent participants who only had like a tiny chance for a medal if everything went absolutely perfect.

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
    • Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.
    • Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig            
    • Skeleton Tour moves on to Yanqing  this weekend.  Asian Cup races tomorrow, then the World Cup on Saturday, and then possibly more Asian Cup next weekend before everyone moves over to Altenberg for the start of the full Skeleton / Bobsleigh tour again. 
    • 2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.
    • But he beat Mouat, who seems to be almost unbeatable 
    • Argentina has a really solid lineup, especially if they have prepared seriously for this event. Of course they don't have a champion like we do, but in this format it is enough to win 1 match to play the decisive doubles.
    • Today we must to beat Argentina. It looks like Sinner will have to win all the singles and doubles for us to defend the title. So far, the 2nd and 3rd favorites before the tournament have already been eliminated: Esp and USA.
