Not very confident of games happening next year but yeah I'll be shocked if Don Opeloge of Samoa doesn't win an Olympic medal in Men's 96kg if it happens next year. Hope he can win the Olympic Gold too if few athletes don't end up participating. 

 

P. S: Great current form should be able to lift 400kg + easily

So she's representing Qatar now? 

 

I don't think so because she will miss the Olympics if she switches nationality, her Olympic points belong to Latvia.

I don't think so Qatar even doesn't go with international women athletes like Bahrain, I don't know if the Latvian federation is OK with her competing wearing hijab or not,  she had been asked many times if she'll continue competing or but she didn't answer so let's wait and see,  BTW 90% of Egyptian lifters wearing hijab and they win a world and Olympic medals so she can continue competing wearing hijab no problem

why ? :mumble:they will qualify one male quota (Fares El-Bakh) but that's it.

 

per new rules athletes win quotas, not NOCS, but they also can't change their NOC in middle of the qualification.

I don't know too much about his injury. I found no news about his injury after the game. So I think it's not a major one more like a normal one.

    • Someone please tell me every single athlete who didn't qualify for the big air final has at least one more event to go? The chance of athletes' Olympics being done before the opening ceremony would be utterly ridiculous...
    • Don't know what they were saying to each other, but one thing on time management is that there is never any debate in : they just instantly agree with what the other is planning to do.
