Commonwealth Games 2022

I decided to add up the times of the top two athletes in both triathlon events to give an idea on what to expect in the mixed relay. I know the length of the race for each leg is considerably shorter, but it's still interesting to see what to expect.

 

:ENG England - 0:00

:AUS Australia - 0:58

:SCO Scotland - 3:14

:CAN Canada - 3:39

:NZL New Zealand - 3:52

:WAL Wales - 3:55

:RSA South Africa - 8:13

:IND India - 44:09

 

Unsurprisingly, England will be the favourite for gold with only Australia potentially giving them any trouble. The bronze medal is pretty open with Scotland, Canada, New Zealand and Wales all near each other. I'd also like to remind that :BER Bermuda will also be in contention as Tyler Butterfield will join his three compatriots in the relay. If he is still as fast as Tyler Smith they will be the favorites for bronze assuming Duffy out races everyone as badly as she did today.

:SRI just defeated :AUS in the badminton! (don't think that was unexpected, but worth a shout out!)

I think it was a slight upset. Going by rankings I think Australia was favoured to win 3-2, but once Sri Lanka won the mixed doubles (the most even match-up) it was more of a formality as Sri Lanka's men are a lot better than Australia's men.

 

Good for them, I can tell they have been investing in sport recently. In 2020 they were arguably the strongest tripartite nation when taking their performance across all sports. Hopefully everything gets sorted out peacefully with their government

    • 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.
