However, this was more the merit of the USSR and its training system.

Yes. That was totally different world of sport with GBR at the 36 place with 1 gold, which looks unbelivable from the 21st century.

 

But we mostly kept that level in total number of medals until the start of the russian agression and annexions in 2014.

Our normal number of medals was 19-23 (with the only exception for Rio).

But of course the share of gold medals declined dramatically

I also think that this was our best time in both summer and winter sports + team sports. And it was not a coincidence, because a few years ago I saw calculations that in 1996 we spent more on professional sports in our country than we do now. Secondly, we had more people aged 18 up to 30-32. Over these 30 years, Italian society has aged a lot and the only solution is probably to reach out to migrants more widely, like France, the Netherlands, or GBR. 

 

Personally, I prefer the balance we had in Atlanta: 36 medals, including 13 gold, than what we had in Tokyo 2021: 40 medals, including 10 gold.

Yes, we have 2 days without medals. But it was rather expected. Of course, we had good chances in women epee. Bezhura nad +5 against Mallo-Breton and Kharkova nad +3 against her. 

 

But my xM (like xG in soccer) for the days 1 and 2 were very low (realistic/optimistic)

 

Day1: 0xM / 0xM

Day2: 0,57xM / 0.86xM 

 

Will see if day 3 will be better

 

Day3: 2,36xM / 3.93xM

You know, it may look differently from the outside. We would say that Italy is doing very well at the nowadays olympics.

 

But I have one more obvious observation. The Games are much harder for not top sport-powers like the USA, China when they are hosted not but these tops but by some other economically strong states.

Today in boxing we were cheated in favor of Uzbekistan, which is a powerhouse and has the judges in its grasp. According to bookmakers they can win all the gold here. In judo there were also controversies and so we lose 1 gold here, bronze there etc. and not at all to the USA or China, but to Uzbekistan and Kosovo. We have a member in the IOC, and we are weak and they are cheating us. On the other hand, boxing should be thrown out of the games, because it is a farce. The vote-counting machines in Beijing 2008 were probably better.

The medal table feels empty without us, doesn't it:p

 

And no :NED chances at all today and only a chance in judo tomorrow. Decent chance we don't enter the medal table until wednesday.

    • 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.
