Team GB Daily: Day 13


 Share

Recommended Posts

So am I right in thinking our remaining Gold Medal hopes are:

  • Women’s Madison
  • Men’s Madison
  • Women’s Sprint (Finucane)
  • Women’s Pentathlon

 

Events underway are Women’s Heptathlon which is going better than expected, and Men’s Pentathlon which is going worse than hoped. 

Not sure if any of our remaining taekwondo fighters are favoured? And the rest of our opportunities are really just to medal rather than realistic shots at Gold? 
 

I think we will be lucky to hit 15 Gold.

2 taekwondo fighters on their day are very competitive. Oh and I still think neah will be competitive in the women’s omnium plus the relays look very promising across the board and a medal in the 1500 is not out of the question. Amber has a sniff of a minor medal in the 400m too.

Not to make everyone more stressed, but I think :NED can catch us, they have got a good lot of very strong events coming up.

    • Yeah, same here, this weekend definitely doesn't have nothing     I mean, so far I've seen lots of racing with cars, motorbikes and regular bikes, college football highlights, ski jumping, mountainbike and so on. But the most important thing of the weekend for me (MotoGP/2/3) being in the early morning is lovely because it opens up the day so much     And yeah, Christmas is usually fun to take a look on Flashscore.com, especially the first day is the one day in the entire year where the whole page is almost entirely empty, with only a bit of football in very few muslim-majority countries  
    • Wow! 5 goals in less than 3 minutes for  so 3rd place for them.   4th place.      7 - 1 
    • Wish I could say the same, for me it’s rare when there’s a day that there’s absolutely nothing on for me to watch There’s even stuff on Christmas (NBA and NFL), although usually in the days leading up to it there’s less sporting events going on. 
    • Gravel world championships     And ski jumping Summer Grand Prix, just finished catching up on an insane season of Red Bull Rookies Cup, still lots of NASCAR to catch up with and with this weekend being a bit of a slow one in terms of live sports (and the MotoGP/2/3 things being in Japan and so being done and dusted by 9am my time), it's so far been a weekend with lots of catching up  
    • WTT China Smash   Men’s Singles 1.  Lin Shidong 2.  Ma Long 3.  Xiang Peng 3.  Liang Jingkun   Women’s Singles 1.  Sun Yingsha  2.  Wang Manyu 3.  Chen Xingtong 3.  Fan Siqi   Men’s Doubles 1.  Liang Jingkun/Wang Chuqin 2.  Lin Gaoyuan/Lin Shidong 3.  Yuan Licen/Xiang Peng 3.  Alexis Lebrun/Felix Lebrun   Women’s Doubles 1.  Qian Tianyi/Chen Xingtong 2.  Wang Yidi/Sun Yingsha 3.  Chen Yi/Xu Yi 3.  Chen I-Ching/Li Yu-Jhun   Mixed Doubles 1.  Lin Shidong/Kuai Man 2.  Lin Gaoyuan/Wang Yidi 3.  Xue Fei/Qian Tianyi 3.  Kristian Karlsson/Christina Kallberg   Full Results
    • Just finished watching the Gauff-Muchova final at the China Open, and I’ll be watching both the men’s and women’s finals at the GSOC HearingLife Tour Challenge, but here’s what else I’ll be watching (or at least trying to watch) the next two weeks.    BWF Denmark Open, ATP Shanghai Masters, WTA Wuhan/Ningbo Open, FIVB Elite 16 Joao Pessoa, FIFA U17 Women’s Football World Cup (lesser priority, the knockout stage matches are in late October to early November), European Table Tennis Championships (lesser priority), FIS Ski/Snowboard Big Air WC Chur, UCI Track Cycling World Championships, WA Swimming WC Shanghai, NBA/NFL/NHL, any semi big curling events that I can find streaming for, any club season volleyball matches that I can find streaming for (some are on VBTV which helps but this season my teams are Gas Sales Blunergy Piacenza, Vero Volley Monza, Vakıfbank, Eczacıbaşı, Asseco Resovia), 3X3 Basketball World Tour Amsterdam/Macau (lesser priority and no group stage matches, only knockout if I have time and I’m not feeling too fatigued)   Edit: There’s also the Archery and Triathlon WC Finals, damn there’s a lot going on.
