Or do you mean something like us and our swimming? --> in Rio we didn't expect more than 1 medal or so, which looking at past years just shows how much of a mess our swimming has become 1 medal in men's, the eights and lightweight double. So 1/3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,179 Posted August 14, 2016 #253 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Our Olympic committee is appealing over the photo finish in men's single sculls. Also, accoring to FISA's own rulebook, Drysdale and Martin should have both won gold apparently. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope he gets the decision and gets a ceremony for his gold medal if it goes his way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hundredths of a second are used as time reference and everything within one hundredth is declared as dead heat. In case of dead heat all sides get same placing. They also found an example from World junior championships when that rule was applied and two medals of the same color were handed, #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
