Canada now falls behind New Zealand on the medal table

I don't think that'll last past today. A silver in beach volleyball puts us back ahead of them, and that's "worst case scenario".

I am interested to see this new event BREAKING.  I know there are issues or controversy is it a sport.  There are many x type sports now because well they are popular with the young.   I am happy about the depth of Canada - they do look like they willl beat Tokyo's results.  they have 23 medals for sure if you include beach volleyball and Canada still has men's 800, women's shotput, Kate Vincent and Breaking as really good chances to medal. then there are a few outside opportunities - 4x 100 mens and women's though fourths look more hopeful.

    • Add 1 strong pair from Russia and Cizeron, who will return with a new partner and this medal isn`t so certain. They will definitely have to refer to their life form from 2023, and so far, they have been recording worse results every year.

    • First, they lost the medal in the short dance, where their performance were also the worst in the season,   Second, since they had a good free dance, with which they won silver and bronze at the World Championships in previous years (with the result from 2023 it would be another silver today), why experiment and invent something new? You don't change what works well - better is the enemy of good,   The facts are that the Italian pair achieved a worse result at the World Championships than at the European Championships and generally had a weak season, and assuming the return of strong Russians, to win a medal they will need to score around 216-217 points, or maybe more.
