Möregårdh with a fantastic tournament, but the Universe allows you to beat only one Chinese player at a time. He should feel very proud of what he achieved.

 

To put in perspective, in 42 table tennis events in the history of the Olympics, this is only the second time, where we have 2 Medalists not from Asia. The first - 1992 Men's singles where gold and silver were for Europe and another :SWE , legend Jan-Ove Waldner.

Naturally I'm biased as our girls are involved; my logical side of brain says Romania has a slight advantage, let's say 55%-45%

 

But I noticed Indian users around here are very happy with the draw, so they must be right, 'cause that's the way democracy works: the majority always knows better.

 

I'm sure all those users are die-hard table tennis fanatics, they know Romanian team like the back of their hands (no sexual innuendo intended) and can put their emotions aside when rating it.

Well it seems majority does always work at the end :lol:

:IND are through to the QF in Women’s Team event :hyper: 

This is our debut in this event, another FIRST for us in this Olympics. We are deffo heading in the right direction with a number of improvements across various sports :clap: 

 

:IND 3-2 :ROU :thumbup:

 

It was a very tight match but Manika Batra  ( WR 28)  winning her match against Bernadette Szocs (WR 10) was vital in winning this match

Hello brother

 

:IND beat :ROU 3-2. 

 

Ayhika Mukherjee was not part of the team. She beat WR 1 in Women's Singles in February 2024. She beat WR 2 in Women's doubles during Asian Games.

 

I would call a depleted Indian side beat your Romanian team.

This win is even more sweet because we had lost to Romania in World Team Qualifiers for Tokyo Olympics. Historic win for the team.

Congratulations!

 

Excuse me, I was eating a non-depleted brownie

If the lights light up exactly at the correct moment, he was definitely first, since his light went on first. Not sure if those lights are 100% accurate though?

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
