 bronze medal in Basque Pelota, again with Filipe Otheguy (our first ever medalist). He's french but has dual citizenship.

I wanted to watch the basque pelota finals, but they aren’t being shown by PanamSports or the domestic broadcasters 

 

TYC Sports Play might have it, but their player isn’t very stable for me.

Of course the USA was a big favorite, but I think we are no longer underdogs in triathlon.

Brazil didn't even medal this year Americas mixed relay championships (podium was ), so I was surprised even though I expected a medal.

Usually all results in the individual events are a way better than the Mixed Relay haha. We always have a problem with someone that we got DNF, or finish in the middle to back positions in peloton.

Yeah, but I had them as more favored than the North Americans after the individual events. Still, great fight to comeback on the Americans

After surpassing the number of gold medals, now also breaks our record for the highest number of medals in a single Games (which was 169 in Lima 2019).
