One of the few athletes who I absolutely do not dislike, but I always kinda hope for no podium* because writing about that is just a nightmare with her name

 

*not really of course, I wish her all the best too  

 "the Polish girl" as she is known to commentators the world over.

No surprise Top 3 in this SF3 were fast but that's enough for Skrzyszowska to make the final. Nugent is out.

Here it's usually just pronounced "Skryzowska", which sounds a lot less complicated than the way it's actually written

The bbc is hyping josh kerr up. Doing it before the semi I see🤣

 

I do hope he wins or at least gets a medal in the final though

Kassanavoid playing 3D chess here, intentionally not stepping out and letting it get called as a foul to get a mark in, in case others foul out.

Her name is pronounced at the 5 second mark in the video (looked up for our native version). Obviously our digraphs cause all kind of pronouncing mayhem for non-Slavic foreigners
