Scarlett Delgado loses against Bravo in the women's 54kg boxing quarterfinals on a very strange scorecard (3x 29-28 for Bravo and 2x 30-27 for Delgado)

Boxing is unbelievably corrupt right now. The three judges against Canada were all former Soviet Union members and scored against us the exact same way.

I'm not complaining about the gold, but it really shouldn't have been that close (6 points). Ware dominated, her dives were incredible, but it seemed like she couldn't break 7.5/8, which was the same that the 2-4 divers were getting for less good dives.

She is not going to Paris?

What a disappointing result for the women's handball team. The expectations weren't high, but  beat  to qualify for the 2019 games fwiw.

Sorry made a mistake, she’ll still be trying for the OQS, as mentioned on one of her climbing podcasts.
