:ENG athletes win both semifinals... Wilby 59.85 and Peaty 59.02. No joy for Butler who comes 7th in 1:00.90 and is out.

I meant to say it yesterday, but I really like the simplistic broadcast graphics. They look clean and modern.

Why?? 

This might be a long story in itself. 

 

First the TTFI was suspended for the acting only in the interest of it's officials with the national coach asking the India no 1 and defending cwg champion Manika to lose a game against his favourite athlete at Olympic qualifier .

https://www.google.com/amp/s/sportstar.thehindu.com/table-tennis/ttfi-table-tennis-delhi-high-court-manika-batra-sports-soumyadeep-roy-sports-news/article38413147.ece/amp/

 

 

CoA set up by TTFI on court orders  did nothing really. They chose a squad based on a old document which gives more emphasis to domestic tournaments. The top 4 don't participate in national tournaments often. Manika for example was no 33 ranked but being the top ranked internationally got the spot. So someone like Reeth Tennison was chosen. Archana was also selected with the exception that she's world no 4 in women's doubles. But it was challenged in the court which went with the stupid rules .

    • 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.
