Athletics at the Summer Olympic Games 2016

Like him, don't like him, but this shows once again what a class act Usain Bolt is. He is being interviewed on live tv, but when a national anthem starts playing for a ceremony, he wants to wait because "you don't talk through the anthem."

    • Halfpipe WC Laax     Women Gold-  Gaon Choi (90.25) Silver-  Rise Kudo (82.75) Bronze-  Cai Xuetong (75.25)   In a league of her own this season, still undefeated    Men Gold-  Scotty James (98.75)  Silver-  Finley Melville Ives (91.00) Bronze-  Valentino Guseli (80.25)   Full Results
    • Earlier IBU didn't calculate correct points, but now they do on a separate tab on biathlonresults. Wikipedia editors used only IBU Qualifying points tab, which used only last 3 trimesters, but by rules best 3 results from all the qualification period (from the beginning of 24-25 season) should be used for calculations, so 90+ points for Darcie is the correct result.
    • Sweden can be expected to reject one male quota as Robin Olgard injured his knee the day after he got his ticket 
    • but you certainly bought heavy weapons from USA ,with password of 24h-48h required  anyway hungary is not taking part of this conflict until now 
    • Maybe Switzerland, only Amy Baserga and Lea Meier fullfilled the criteria, but maybe we will send a relay if Lena Häcki gets a top 25 Place today. But we have 5 Quotas, so maybe we will reject 1-2
    • I am confused about how the qualifying works for the non-qualified nations (so the top-12 individual athletes). Wikipedia keeps a ranking of them since IBU themselves doesn't, and usually on Wiki these things are quite correct. However, things have been moving around so weirdly in the past few weeks. Like Gaia Brunello and Darcie Morton have been moving in and out of the top-12 with Gaia's points remaining the same, but Darcie's points going from 90 something to 120 something and back....and now she is in again and Gaia is out again. So apparently one can actually also lose points?
    • Stage 15 in Sapporo (JPN)   Men´s Individual Large Hill:   1.  Domen Prevc    277.7 2. Ryoyu Kobayashi    274.2 3. Daniel Tschofenig    265.8   Full Final Result HERE
    • Sunday January 18th, 2026   Knockout Round Last Day Schedule   Bronze Medal Match Atlantic Standard Time (GMT -4)   Czechia vs Sweden Period-by-Period: January 18th 2026, h. 15:30, Centre 200, Sydney     Gold Medal Match Atlantic Standard Time (GMT -4)   United States vs Canada Period-by-Period: January 18th 2026, h. 19:30, Centre 200, Sydney
    • Here's a comparison relative to 2024 (I removed the new team sports to make it more comparable). This ignores Belarus and Russia.   Largest Increases Relative to 2024 1.  +58 2.  +44 3. +31 4.  +29 4.  +29 6.  +28 7.  +27 8.  +24 9.  +22 10.  +21 10.  +21   Unsurprisingly, the United States is expected to see the largest increase thanks to host quotas. It's not as massive as previous host nations, but that's because they don't need host quotas for most sports. South Africa is looking at a big increase, but only if they accept the water polo quotas this time around.     Largest Decreases Relative to 2024 1.  -135 2.  -43 3.  -38 4.  -33 5.  -31 6.  -29 7.  -28 8.  -26 8.  -26 10.  -23 10.  -23   Again, no surprise to see France topping the list as they no longer benefit from host quotas. Ireland takes heavy losses not only by losing two large team events, but is generally down in most sports. Interestingly, Italy has the same number of large team events, but it's the drop in athletics and rowing which caused it to be so high up in the list.
