[RussB 189]

Is there any chance the women's 8 challenge Romania? They looked good in the heat, so you never know.

The shooting is still in a break between rounds 2 and 3 of qualifying. 5 rounds of 25 shots so still long way to go. Hales in joint 2nd at the moment

It seems an extremely long qualifying round.

I get what you mean, but it needs to be because there are too many ties otherwise.

Couldn’t they split in so people go in groups rather than being out there for hours shooting bits and bobs.

Being an outdoor sport the weather conditions can change dramatically so it would be pretty unfair for one group to compete with no wind, and another competing with a stronger wind.

I feel the same about surfing. I watched some yesterday and it was just two women having a nice paddle  for 10 mins and nobody actually standing on a board. Puntastically, I got bored and turned over.

Like I was saying yesterday with the start times, I'm not sure Sailing ever actually happens, its a myth.

Gives McEwen at the least a small bit of breathing room.
