3 new countries since yesterday : :ISR and :POR (Israel is group 5, so that's the 7th in group 5/6/7) but also :CZE who is in final of mixed tennis. We reach the 50 nations !

 

That's pretty difficult now, but many countries are still here. I'll do a recap event by event this week-end.

 

This afternoon, we can have :

 

 

Sailing Skiff M :URU

 

Trampoline W :AIN

Trampoline M :AIN :COL

 

Sailing Windsurfing W :PER

 

Sailing Windsurfing M :ARU

 

Judo +78kg (Repechage) W :BIH

Judo +100kg (Repechage) M :CUB

 

Swimming 50m Freestyle M :CAY

Swimming 20m Backstroke W :AIN

 

Cycling BMX Racing M :COL :CHI

Cycling BMX Racing W :COL :DEN

 

Athletism 1500m M :KEN :ETH :BDI :UGA

 

 

Many little countries today, we hope they will make something !!!

For the overall; I am thinking that Week 1 we have had mostly Rich Country sports - horses, sailing, tennis, swimming etc etc.  Week 2 is much more varied - athletics, taekwando, wrestling, weightlifting.

53. :DOM in boxing.

Oh, all players in SF are medals in boxing, that's true !

 

So :DOM and :CUB are medaled, and we also have a big look on the -51kg match between Zambia and Cabo Verde : whatever happened, we will have our first Groupe 7 Medaled !

(And I hope it will be Cabo Verde, it would be their first medal of their history !)

 

 

 

Btw the count is now at 55 : :AIN win the Silver in Trampoline.

    • There are currently no grounds to consider Ghiotto as a favourite for the 5000. He has never won any important 5000 event while dominating the 10 km at the same time. Roest always won the same pattern, with Ghiotto losing all his advantage in the last 2 laps. We will see what the Italian's form will be like now and how tactically he wants to play it. I would also not forget about Eitrem from Norway, who is much younger from these two and has a lot of room for development.
    • Some good news: Matt Gaetz is out from his position as attorney general, basically two months before he'd even start.
    • Maybe small but this is our worst performance at the European Championships since the post-Covid period and that's a fact. Germany and Norway surprised with their form here. However, only in Italy are things like this possible, such as changing the head coach of the team with less than two years to go before the home games...
    • In my opinion we can lose to Argentina, if it's 0-1 in a moment. This Davis Cup format is a lottery, especially with the shortened doubles. It's no coincidence that all the favorites can/will can be eliminated in the quarter-finals. The second thing is that Argentina has a very solid team: 2 players in the top 30 + a strong doubles. If you sure to will win with them, you would have to have 2 Sinners in great shape.
    • Both Edin and Retornaz at 6-3 just like rank 2 and 3. Just very small margins on h2h and DSC
    • Godun has been training in Italy and Hungary for over 2 years. It's strange that she didn't take a Hungarian passport. Our predecures are so long that it probably wouldn't make sense.
    • Our worst European Men's Championship in this cycle: no promotion to the 1/2. Retronaz has been in poor form since the beginning of the season. The change of the head coach in the Italian team last spring may have had an impact. Unfortunately, the closer to the games, the worse it gets for us and it should be better because we are the organizers.
    • Sport climbing qualification system: https://images.ifsc-climbing.org/ifsc/image/private/t_q_good/prd/a0ga7v4gwmamb3gxouni.pdf
    • Daniel Huber picked up a kee injury during training at Lillehammer.   Piotr Żyła will skip the season opener because of a knee injury too.
    • Agree with you on this. The only missed category was Long Track Speed Skating where Cornelius Kersten and Ellia Smeding have done a good job getting us involved in this event again after many years absence. He won a Bronze medal at 2023 worlds but both are realistically fringe contenders and main goal is to grow the sport here.   As for our general chances by British standards we tend to do well at the various world championships before a Winter Olympics to raise hopes and then several dont quite deliver when its time. Would prefer the reverse to happen where we save our best for 2026 and help boost our Winter sports growth.
