only 3 titles up for grabs Yesterday in the first day of the pool swimming competitions

 

:HUN Vivien Jackl easily won the women's 400m IM, meanwhile :ITA won both men and women's 4*100m Free Relays (the men dominating, thanks also to the presence of the next Olympian Carlos D'Ambrosio; the women just edging out by 1/100 of a second the French girls)

 

next Olympian D'Ambrosio and Alessandro Ragaini, instead, just gave up on the individual gold & silver over the individual 200m Free, Ragaini by not even bothering to show up in the qualifiers, D'Ambrosio swimming a shameful 1.50.x, which made him only the 3rd Italian and leaving him out of the semis :facepalm:

 

p.s. someone sooner or later would explain to me why those 2 guys are swimming at the junior Europeans right now, less than a month before the Olympics? :mumble: :zip:

15 yo :GRE Ntoumas is also swimming here right before the Olympics, though in his case the expectations for him to do well in Paris are very low, he is only going to be in a relay.

day #2 in the pool

 

:ITA stay on top of the medal table with 2 more gold medals (Sara Curtis in the women's 50m backstroke and the mixed 4*100m free relay) and going up to 4 titles, but :LTU are just behind with their 3 gold medals won Today (Trepocka, men's 200m free; Kauspedas, men's 50m backstroke; Plytynskaite, women's 50m breststroke)

 

:HUN increase their tally to 2 gold medals thanks to Minna Abraham (women's 200m free), meanwhile :ROU (Mihalache, men's 200m fly), :GBR (Blocksidge, women's 1500m free) and :TUR (Allahverdi, men's 50m breaststroke) just won their 1st gold of the championship

What a great night for :LTU with 3 golds!

Congratulations! :clap:

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?

day #3

 

:ITA still on top of the medal table, thanks to the 5th gold medal of the championship (Sara Curtis, women's 50m freestyle)

 

the other 4 titles of the day went to :ROU (R.A. Badea, men's 200m IM), :DEN (M. Damborg, women's 100m fly), :HUN (women's 4*200m freestyle relay) and, above all, to :TUR K. Tuncelli, who won the men's 1500m freestyle with the new Junior World Record* in 14.41.89, which most likely is going to be the performance of the championships (surely it is so far)

 

*yes, we all know that some amazing clockings of a few years ago aren't recorded in the junior list (which is quite recent), but still :yikes:

Well, five medals for Lithuania already :p

 

Difficult to believe that we can top this, but Plytnykaitė, Kaušpėdas, Juška will still be available to start next year too and might even come back stronger.

 

There are still good chances for more medals in 100m Free for Trepočka and Juška, 100m Breaststroke for Plytnykaitė and 100m Backstoke for Kaušpedas.

 

I'd even add the men's 4x100m medley as a decent shot if Trepočka, Juška and Kaušpėdas were swimming in it, but the coaches might save them for their individual finals on the last day.

    • Besides, I think Eitrem will be better than Ghiotto. You can see it after 1500 meters. He is younger. The whole Norwegian team is also in great shape.
    • Looking at last season's 1st World Cup, it's worse for now and it should be the other way around. Bosa out of shape, Trentini weak. Both will drop to a lower group. It's similar to skeleton, i.e. regression instead of progress. I hope this doesn't mean Ghiotto is also in weaker form, because it could end up with 0 podiums this weekend.
    • In general, our picture for a little over 1 year until the home games looks like this:     - the women's sector is still based on one Lollo, who is 3 years older than 2022, - the women's and men's sprint sector is based on one Bosa and possibly the young Pergher (0% possobility for medal in 2026), - Ghiotto has made a lot of progress and that is a big plus. He could result to give our even 3 medals, including 1/2 gold. Our team's performance also depends to a large extent on Ghiotto's form, - the rest of the men's team is basically unchanged. There is Giovannoni in the mass start, there is Malfatti in the longer distances, but they are not competitors on the podium of a major event.   I will repeat myself: if Ghiotto continues to make such progress, we will probably win 3 medals, 2 of which gold and it will be a success. If something doesn`t work out, an injury, illness, etc. (we know from Vitozzi that this can happen to anyone), then it could be very bad. By the way, this also applies to other sports: the above-mentioned Vitozzi in biathlon, Goggia in downhill, Brignone in giant slalom, etc.
    • With the World Cup season in most of the winter sports about to begin and qualification in some sports already underway, I think it's about time for this thread.    Template    ...

    • Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.
    • Yup, actually they have just some juniors pairs in the dance event
