Day #3 Finals

 

men's 200m Backstroke

 

:UKR Oleksandr Zheltyakov, 1.55.39

:GRE Apostolos Siskos, 1.55.42

:SUI Roman Mityukov, 1.55.75

 

women's 50m Fly

 

:SWE Sara Junevik, 25.68

:BEL Roos Vanotterdijk, 26.08

:GRE Anna Ntountounaki, 26.18

 

men's 800m Freestyle

 

:UKR Mykhailo Romanchuk, 7.46.20

:GRE Dimitrios Markos, 7.48.59

:HUN Zalan Sarkany, 7.49.29

I thought we would add to our gold medal tally today to be honest, but 3 medals is still really good.

 

Also we had big NRs in the two Olympic events where we won silver :thumbup:

 

Siskos broke Christou's NR of 1:56.34 from last month in Thessaloniki (Siskos' previous PR was 1:56.64 from Doha 2024). He's still just 18 yo, I really hope he can do something big in Paris because I worry that he won't be as good in 2028. He is going to study in USA after Paris and often our Olympic athletes who go there end up seeing their progress stall or even decline so it's not always the best decision for everyone and we've seen many examples of it in swimming, athletics, rowing, and tennis.

 

Markos broke his own NR of 7:49.97 from Doha 2024.

Surprisingly Bronze medal for :CZE Daniel Gracík. I am happy for him. On the other hand, it so painful to watch his time on 100m Buttefly. :roflmao: Couple of weeks ago 51,69s (0,02s behind the Olympic limit). Yesterday, 51,68s (0,01s behind the Olympic limit). :cry: :hairpull: .... Now, I am hoping, he will finally break it in the final. 

 

Anyways, when he swam it twice already this year and so close, I suppose he may get the invitation .....

Not at all :d 

 

I meant the average level as a whole, of course there are some strong swimmers there :p 

Hey, i love the greeks, and there's an interesting cultural undertow here, eastern and balkan Europe has clearly taken the champs a bit more seriously than Western Europe - but, I mean, Pop is here doing 46s. It's not so much D' level as it is uneven in the extreme - some bits damn close to A standard, some struggling to hit C, sometimes within the same race.

So, so happy for Drakou! She is 32 yo, so many times at the European Championships she finished 4th or 5th, she said all year this was her goal to win a medal as it was the last thing missing from her career in her opinion. Finally she did it! :yes

 

She will probably retire after Paris based on what she's said this year, and I think the timing will be good. I hope she enjoys her 4th and final Olympics where she will only be competing in a relay unless she gets an invitation for an individual event. She's been great for Greek women's swimming the last 12 years or so!

 

Also she said after the race that all night she was dreaming about winning gold, but that she made many mistakes in the race and she is thankful to God that she still won a medal despite the mistakes, and that it was a reward for her for all the times she was close in her career but didn't win a medal :hug:

 

 

And nice to see us win another relay medal, they were close to NR too!

In the semifinal of the men's 200 freestyle we saw another NR from Markos :yes

 

However the focus is on the women's 100 butterfly where we have two girls who made the final, Anna Ntountounaki who is always there and won gold in the past, and our newcomer Georgia Damasioti.

 

Damasioti came to Belgrade with a PR of 58.76 and in the heats got 58.54, then 58.00 in the semifinals :yikes:, so she is very very close to the magic number 57.92 for OQT. I really hope she can get it in the final (she will be in a middle lane) because OST means nothing for her since we have Ntountounaki already with OQT (ironically this is the only women's race where Greece has OQT already).

    • We don’t even have a broadcaster or streaming platform for the games ! IOC couldn’t get any deal for the Indian viewers and we can’t watch this games live ! 
    • 2028 Team Size Projection – Jan 2026 Update   Here’s an update to my 2028 Team Size Projection. While I touch upon major events changes may occur due to results in smaller events. Additionally, several sports released their qualification document so there may be cases where I have to update the projection. I will only include sports where there is an update.   Here is the link to the updated sheet.     Aquatics (Water Polo) The Men’s European Championships saw take gold. The victory moved Serbia up a few places between European nations. With that said, no one fell out of Olympic qualification with the likes of France and Romania still on the outside looking in. remains on the edge.   Athletics (Marathon) Both the Xiamen and Osaka marathons were held this month along with a few other smaller events. While there were a few changes in the rankings, in terms of Olympic projections gains an athlete in the men’s marathon at the expense of   Badminton Major tournaments include the Malaysia Open and India Open. New updates which affected projections include the women’s doubles where overtook . As Polina Buhrova is also scheduled to compete in the singles event, an additional spot has been open. Other changes in the women’s singles was loses one of their quotas. and benefit from those losses.   Indonesia’s loss on the women’s side is offset by gaining a second player in the men’s singles. This puts   on the outside.   Canoeing The qualification document for both Slalom and Sprint were released/updated. No significant changes were found in the Sprint update. Slalom had significant changes relative to 2024 where the initial quotas will be decided by rankings and kayak cross will now have significant quotas being allocated. After adjustment, the following nations lost a quota; Andorra, Chinese Taipei, Ireland, New Zealand, North Macedonia, Slovakia, and Sweden. The following nations gained a quota; Canada, China, France, Italy, South Africa, Spain, and Tunisia.   Cricket The Women’s T20 World Cup Qualifier was held. No changes to the projection.   Equestrian (Dressage & Jumping) Various World Cup events were held. No changes to the projections were made.   Fencing We had two Grand Prix this month, one for epee and the other for sabre. In men’s epee, overtakes . On the women’s side, the United States moved into the top 4 in the team ranking, pushing Estonia down to fifth. This pushed out of Olympic qualification while takes the Americas quota. This caused a downstream effect on the individual side as Ukraine takes an individual quota and Canada relinquishes their quota, additionally, gained a quota while lost one.   In men’s sabre, now takes the Asian team quota pushing down to just an individual quota. No changes were found in women’s sabre.   Handball Four men’s continental championships were held this month. finished top in Africa while a couple of upsets were saw in South America and Asia where and won over and respectively. Despite their wins, they currently haven’t leapfrogged into being projected to qualify. We’ll see how they perform at the World Championships.   Europe saw finish fourth. This was enough to push it into Olympic qualification projection. They pushed out.   Rowing The qualification document was released. There was a change in boat allocation relative to 2024 and the continental qualifier was slightly different than what I projected. Additionally, I assumed coastal rowing would allow 2 men and 2 women to compete in its three events, but the max is 1 man and 1 woman. This has caused significant changes to the projections.   Overall, the United States lost four quotas. Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Lithuania, New Zealand, Norway, and Spain lost two quotas and Algeria, Argentina, Croatia, Cuba, Egypt, Kazakhstan, Netherlands, Portugal, Tunisia lost one quota.   The following nations have gained two athletes; Japan, Morocco while the following nations gained one athlete; Angola, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Chinese Taipei, Cote d’Ivoire, Denmark, Estonia, Kuwait, Latvia, Mexico, Romania, Philippines, Paraguay, Puerto Rico, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Togo, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu   Rugby Sevens Fixing a couple of mistakes. First on the men, actually has the Asian quota over and in the women as is essentially shutting down the program, I think it is only right to remove them until they decide to compete again. This means is also projected to qualify.   As for new updates, we saw the third tier SVNS compete, which brought no new updates and the Singapore SVNS. I also didn’t add the Dubai or Cape Town SVNS in my calculations. For both, while there was some shuffling no one ultimately fell out.   Shooting The Asian Shotgun Championships were held this month. A few top shooters were missing. The only change to the projection is is set to qualify in women’s trap, pushing out   Squash The Tournament of Champions was held this month. Additionally, the qualification document was released. There was some restriction as to how many nations can send two players and this sport will offer universality quotas.   The following nations lost an athlete quota; Colombia, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and New Zealand. The following nations gained an athlete quota; Canada, Pakistan, Spain (x2), Switzerland, Ukraine   Triathlon The qualification document was released. There are a few changes relative to 2024. Projection changes include: Losses to Hong Kong and Slovenia and gains for Austria and China.   Weightlifting The qualification document was released. One change to be made was the reallocation process for host nation quotas. Due to this, El Salvador Iraq, Palau, Sri Lanka, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu lost quotas while Australia, China, Dominican Republic, Iran, and Samoa (x2) gained quotas.   Wrestling The qualification document was released. There were some significant changes to the qualification process including using the world rankings and the final qualifier only consisting of non-qualified nations. The projection changes are as follows; losses to Belarus, Bulgaria, China, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia, Russia, South Korea, Sweden, and Turkey.   Belgium and Lithuania gained 2 quotas while American Samoa, Austria, Estonia, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Latvia, Madagascar, Spain, and Turkmenistan gained 1 quota.
    • Looks like we in the Philippines are in the same situation. No news yet on whether we’ll be able to watch the Games 
    • Cricket is any day in a better position than Baseball, Modern Pentathlon or Rowing 8s globally
    • http://i.imgur.com/gLJZbix.jpg   Honestly football is just on another level. For other sports, an expanded field or creating multiple host cities likely only works with baseball, cricket and maybe basketball, and only in very specific countries.
    • No streaming for the games in India. I contacted IOC they just sent me a list where the games will be shown live.    Last games we had the Olympic channel and YouTube showing the live coverage for regions with no media rights. This time sadly no such schedule.   So much about making the games accessible to all...
    • What revealed those files of Epstein !!!! thousands of scandals , horrible diguisting things mixing politic criminalities , robbery , scam , manipulation...etc    all those celebrities of shht that you love   
    • I wonder if instead of having flexibility around what sport to add there should be one or two team sports per game with an expanded field (of 16 or 32 or w/e) where the host gets to pick which which team sports (if any) has an expanded field.
    • Dunno if this is geoblocked, but this is from our weekly comedy show Saturday Night Live
