I just notice that Greece won a medal in LW :yikes:

We've won 6 Olympic rowing medals in our history now, 3 in LM2X (2004, 2008, 2024), 2 in LW2X (2012, 2024), and 1 in M1X (2020). We will be sad to see the LW events go :cry:

 

And we're the only country to win medals in both LW events here in Paris :yes

I'm glad that after a disappointing first few days in Paris we are able now to win some more medals, 4 in the last 3 days and hopefully more to come :)

 

Also I want to say Dimitra Kontou who won bronze in LW2X is only 18 years old! When was the last time someone that young won an Olympic medal in rowing? I think we will see her in 2028 in an open category, she is not so small, about 170 cm I think.

 

I'm not sure what Zoi Fitsiou does from here but she's already 28 yo, retired from rowing once to study, then came back into coastal rowing and then in regular rowing. Perhaps she will try coastal rowing again for 2028?

 

As for the men, I can see Papakonstantinou continuing in the open weights but Gkaidatzis seems too small. Of course you never know, we just had 165cm Evangelia Anastasiadou get 6th in the W2- today which shows some of the lightweight rowers can hold their own in the open category.

    • Elia Barp? That's wishful thinking I have more chances to become a billionaire
    • "Out of stadium" why not just call it road events? 
    • GSOC Kioti National | Saint Johns, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada    Men 1.  Team Mouat 2.  Team Jacobs 3.  Team McEwen 3.  Team Whyte   Team Mouat have now won the first 3 slams to start the season, and keep their hope for a Grand Slam alive. They’d be the first team to ever achieve that feat.    Women 1.  Team Homan 2.  Team Hasselborg 3.  Team Kim 3.  Team Einarson   Team Homan were 5-2 down entering the 6th end and somehow managed to find a way to win. Now 40-2 on the season, including 5 titles, and are 107-9 in their last 116 games. Incredible consistency.    Full Results
    • I would say the same with Serbia   May the best team win 
    • Yes, there are chances for us to make it, but also there are chances for you to beat us by more than 6 goalsOur team is very unpredictable at the moment.
    • My guess is that Montenegro will beat Czech Republic and for the our match it will be about goal difference. I read that if Serbia beat Romania by 6 goals then we will pass. So there are still chances that you can make it. 
    • Difficult for us without Neagu But we had some good moments against Montenegro last night. We lost due to many errors in defence, we have to improve that. I don't know what to expect against Serbia, I would say 55% we will go home after group stage, unfortunatly. About the other matches, except Croatia vs Faroe Islands which ended with a draw, not to many surprises.
    • Congrats to Max for another win. Easy race for him   The battle for constructor championship is still running What a disgrace for the directors of the race to not send the safety car on track due to that mirror which caused a puncture to Sainz and Hamilton. By the way, looking of the direction of Bottas when he hit that mirror we can be suspicious that he did that intentionally. Ok, he had to give space to the driver who laped him, but his direction is too strange. Pitty such race was ruined by this incident.
    • World Athletics announce the World Athletes of the Year.  Big awards go to Letsile Tebogo and to Sifan Hassan.    Women’s World Athlete of the Year: Sifan Hassan (NED) Men’s World Athlete of the Year: Letsile Tebogo (BOT) Women’s track: Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone (USA) Women’s field: Yaroslava Mahuchikh (UKR) Women’s out of stadium: Sifan Hassan (NED) Men’s track: Letsile Tebogo (BOT) Men’s field: Mondo Duplantis (SWE) Men’s out of stadium: Tamirat Tola (ETH) Women’s Rising Star: Sembo Almayew (ETH) Men’s Rising Star: Mattia Furlani (ITA)       Seems a bit strange to me - OK, there is a case for Tebogo over Duplantis who can basically win every year, but for me Manuchikh beating an almost 30 year old WR beats winning Olympic Marathon Gold.    Hassan and Tebogo named World Athletes of the Year | World Athletics
