Lucy Hall starts off with a 25, one of only six women to do so. Still very early days obviously.

Over the five rounds I think really you can only afford potentially a max 4 misses to get into the top 6, so it’s high pressure. Even that may be 1 too many. Good start for Lucy

Nathan Hales scores a perfect 25 in round 4 to keep himself firmly in the hunt for the final.  One round left and there's a 7 way tie for 6 places.

 

Another 25 from Hales would guarantee him at least a shoot off for the final.

 

Depending on how the others shoot, a 24 might be okay but obviously not guaranteed. 23 or below almost certainly knocks him out.

Women's DOUBLE make the final and looked strong, and i would probably put them as a solid shot at a bronze now, having them as nothing before the games, those romanian's and their damned sprint though!

Great row by the women’s double sculls to get into the final! Just edged out by Romania in a sprint to the line.

a medal isn’t impossible; quite an open event

When you're one of six I'd like to think there's a very decent chance

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

    • 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.
