:FRA supporters singing La Marsellaise and never-ending cheering really destroyed :INA mentally. Last of the group despite winning against higher ranked :KOR in the first match

Good luck to Ginting :dunno:

Does not say anything. But since no mention about live streaming. I would think computer will draw the lots

I hate BWF computer draw and I think every badminton powerhouse does so. The draw is always full of drama.

As what I expect, BwF well arranged the draw. Two Chinese teams will have derby on quarterfinal.

@Griff88 Do you know when will draw lots for mixed double knockout stage? By computer or by hand? Chinese fans are worried about it after Huang/Feng lost to Chen/Toh.

At least this is an evidence that it is not computer draw

The :BUL Stoevi sisters officially make the 1/4 after today win over  :USA :clap:. Could have even won against the :CHN pair in the group, but didn't have energy in the last part of the 3rd set. 

 

We will see, what the draw will be, but the goals have been achieved. :hatoff:

Also Tokyo gold medallist :INAGreysia Polli does not move past the groups.

Well, you must meant Apriyani Rahayu since Greysia Polii is now shouting from the stands lol

Anyways, they are just confused... Even the coach got frustrated and just told them "think why you two are here. If you don't know what are you doing, better just quickly finish the match and shake the opponents' hands" during the break in their match against :MAS

Didn't work at all

    • In my opinion we can lose to Argentina, if it's 0-1 in a moment. This Davis Cup format is a lottery, especially with the shortened doubles. It's no coincidence that all the favorites can/will can be eliminated in the quarter-finals. The second thing is that Argentina has a very solid team: 2 players in the top 30 + a strong doubles. If you sure to will win with them, you would have to have 2 Sinners in great shape.
    • Both Edin and Retornaz at 6-3 just like rank 2 and 3. Just very small margins on h2h and DSC
    • Godun has been training in Italy and Hungary for over 2 years. It's strange that she didn't take a Hungarian passport. Our predecures are so long that it probably wouldn't make sense.
    • Our worst European Men's Championship in this cycle: no promotion to the 1/2. Retronaz has been in poor form since the beginning of the season. The change of the head coach in the Italian team last spring may have had an impact. Unfortunately, the closer to the games, the worse it gets for us and it should be better because we are the organizers.
    • Sport climbing qualification system: https://images.ifsc-climbing.org/ifsc/image/private/t_q_good/prd/a0ga7v4gwmamb3gxouni.pdf
    • Daniel Huber picked up a kee injury during training at Lillehammer.   Piotr Żyła will skip the season opener because of a knee injury too.
    • Agree with you on this. The only missed category was Long Track Speed Skating where Cornelius Kersten and Ellia Smeding have done a good job getting us involved in this event again after many years absence. He won a Bronze medal at 2023 worlds but both are realistically fringe contenders and main goal is to grow the sport here.   As for our general chances by British standards we tend to do well at the various world championships before a Winter Olympics to raise hopes and then several dont quite deliver when its time. Would prefer the reverse to happen where we save our best for 2026 and help boost our Winter sports growth.
    • British Sports Journalist Awards.   Man of the Year goes to Alex Yee, Woman of the Year to Keely Hodgkinson.   Alex Yee and Keely Hodgkinson among SJA British Sports Awards 2024 winners - Sports Journalists' Association
    • Alistair Brownlee, double Olympic Triathlon gold medallist.   https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/articles/c4g7y7ly266o
    • I suppose Lithuania qualified for women's world championships for the first time. Skip Virginija Paulauskaitė will debut at the age of 53 after she won silver medal in senior world championships. Incredible example of sport longevity
