In squash, Baillargeon won the first set easily 11-6, and has been outscored 16-5 since. On the women's side, Bunyan won her first set, was leading 5-0 in the second, and is now down 9-8.

Diego Elias is 2nd in the world, while Baillargeon is ranked 39th. Was surprised to even see him manage to take a set off him.

So what’s the difference between technical, free, and acrobatic routine for artistic swimming. Which one counts towards Olympic qualification. I see Canada place third in the technical way behind Mexico when Canada usually dominates this discipline at the pan am games. Anyone know anything about this and why Canada isn’t as dominant?

There has been some major overhauling of the scoring system recently.

      yeah I know    I mean it wasn't a different team specific for that sport. it was the same CC team participating in both sports.

      from what I heard , Iran has registered to participate in Alpine, CC skiing, SkiMo, Skating (they didn't mention which discipline ) and ... (this one will be surprising ) ... Curling    Curling is not a sure thing yet, the NOC has to approve it. the team is very new. I mean very very new, only few months ago they gathered few people to start the sport  you can't lose 100-0 in Curling, right ?    anyway it will be first time ever Iran participating outside of FIS disciplines. ( I didn't count Ski orienteering in 2011 which was the same as CC)   nobody cares about winter sports here. therefore finishing last won't have consequences. they can afford sending very weak teams. (which is not the case for the main Asian Games)

      11 medals out of 15 athletes. for whatever reason  we sent an incomplete team of 16 athletes (only 1 left for tomorrow) I wish I knew why  I can guess though   the result is indeed very good in such a competitive sport but lack of talent was never our problem in taekwondo. it was always there probably much more than any other country.    but the problem is the transition to the senior team. most of previous junior world champions never even made the senior team. (the new federation is doing better in this regard though)

      Maybe my analogy was bad. I meant a team points competition based on individual placements in each event.

      I actually feel like it has the potential to be good change. The new brand identities might open up more possibilities for merchandise. I also think the ISU could create a compelling team standings competition similar to the constructors cup in F1.   Plus, it might add a degree of “apolitical-ness” to the top level international short track, during a time where that’s been a hot topic in international sports (in general).    Maybe it won’t work at all, but I’m open to seeing where the ISU go with this.
