It was a very nice experience, in a country I would have probably never visited for tourism. I have met some very welcoming people, of course we have had a lot of limitations and could not leave the h

I have been in the stadium before the Opening Ceremony. That was a very nice athmosphere, and something nice to experience for someone who has grown up in Europe. I have some pictures and videos, but

Countries are considered to be Francophone if, during the 19th Century, the aristocracy sent their children to French speaking schools. See also Poland, Russia, Brazil, Egypt etc.

:ROU bags the first gold medal in table tennis. They might be able to sweep the medals, which would definitely help their chances of topping the medal table.

Stylers Crew :MAR will again perform for the gold medal. :CIV will get a chance to avenge their semifinal loss to them from six years ago.

I don’t think the judges and I watched the same final :mumble:

 

Stylers Crew :MAR get the gold even though they spent more time doing weird gags and hogging the stage than the CIV Freestyle Team :CIV (who at least actually did some juggling)

Definitely looking like a battle between :MAR:ROU for top spot on the medal table. :ROU got eliminated in women’s basketball, so that might hurt their chances.

A couple decent performances in athletics…

 

Eseme :CMR took gold in the men’s 100m (10.04)

 

Mendy :SEN won gold and broke the games record in the men’s 110m hurdles (13.38)

 

Diouf :SEN with nice sub-46 win in the men’s 400m.

 

:GUI:MAD picked up their first gold medals as well. :CMR (men’s long jump) and :MAR (women’s 1500m) both achieved podium sweeps.

:WLL won a silver medal in literature, so they won’t leave empty-handed.

Men’s singles event in table tennis is shaping up for an interesting finale. :ARM:KOS:LBN all eliminated in the quarterfinals. :ROU the only non-African country into the semifinals. :COD still with a chance for gold as well.

Huge result for Marthe Koala :BUR (heptathlete) in women’s long jump. She set the Games Record at 6.94m, which also bags her a quota for Paris 2024. 25cm PB according to the start list :yikes:

      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

      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.

      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.
