We have to wait for 364 more days till we know the result :-) Hopefully ... (the olympics will take place). At least this time Germany isn‘t as dependant on those two boats to bring home medals, the men‘s eight, the men‘s lightweight double sculls and Oliver Zeidler in the men’s single sculls are all in a good position to medal. Sadly Germany is very bad at translating U20/U23 results to the senior level. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

Col_Frost 179 Posted July 29, 2020 #373 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Normally I would say Canoe Slalom but women's C1 still doesn't convince me. I'm sure in future that'll change but today this competition is too young for olympics and little bit amateurish. So rowing would be most interesting for me - four finals. After that trap, I love shotgun competitions and fencing because it's women's foil team which I have great memories with. bmo and hckošice 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCB 455 Posted July 30, 2020 #375 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Since the Dutch Gymnastics Federation yesterday decided to discontinue the Olympic Sport Program (due to all the accusations), I suppose there won't be Dutch gymnasts in the all around final. I feel sorry for Eyhtora Thorsdottir and Naomi Visser, who were very likely to be in some finals. But today we also have rowing, beachvolleyball and the start of the BMX competitions, with Niek Kimmann as Dutch medal hope! bmo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But unfortunately Epke has not qualified yet for the Olympics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
