She's something special and only 15. Hopefully she improves just a bit more to turn those final appearances into medals.

And here we are, celebrating our "huge talent" Marrit Steenbergen, when Canada comes up with a whole different league with Oleksiak :d

I just noticed that the sprint freestyle swimmers from Japan had failed to reach the nation's own Olympic qualifying standard. What will happen to them if they failed? Is there a higher chance of not sending the relay teams in the men's and women's 4x100 m freestyle to Rio?

The Japanese federation could add them if they want to. Overall they need to do something, they technically have 15 relay only swimmers, but they have only 12 quotas to use for relay only swimmers so they will either have to give some of those swimmers individual events or get qualified individual event swimmers from other events to swim those relays.

 

Declining a relay is an option, Japan did it in 2012 for the men's 4x100m freestyle.

    • Yep. Not sure if it was the NOC or the biathlon federation (I assume the latter) that put him in the Livigno training 'world' with a former Italian biathlete as coach, but they can definitely also be blamed:  almost everyone involved in that shitshow got the motivation just sucked out of them by the methods and shitty atmosphere until they either retired or changed country

    • Lots of injuries, including often just pure bad-luck stuff like a fall from a set of stairs, illness, and of course the Sochi tragedy in 2014: one of her biathlon friends, young Julia Pieper, killed herself with a biathlon rifle early during the Olympics (she wasn't on the team, but was a training partner of both Preuss and Dahlmeier). Obviously a hard hit, which led to terrible Olympics for Preuss, with a DNF, awful results in her other individual races and a relay where she was the first runner for Germany, but fell early on, got snow in her rifle and broke a pole and ended up losing almost 3 minutes, which in turn resulted in Germany being off the podium for the first time ever.   After that came all the injuries and illness and everything. So glad to finally see her have her big individual global gold, that is so well deserved.
    • Dave Ryding's Sixth was the best from a  man since 1934!  We actually have two Women's Golds in the 1930s.
    • first win for the Italian men's relay since 2007      very good Home stage for us   if only the organizers didn't set the finals sessions at 2 p.m. (especially on Saturday), there would have been a lot more spectators on the seats
