News about SVK..

 

ITF announced to our Tennis Federation that Andrej Martin was 5th under the qualifying line, so we have to wait to see how the things will turn out.. But apparently there a decent chances (as he said) that even if he´ll not pass via ranking to get a invitational place as the lone slovak in the mens singles...the final decision will be known shortly before the tournament draw.

 

About Dominika Cibulková it looks less better, She just visited her doctor in Bratislava today and he did not recommended her the start at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. Despite this she said to the medias that she will do everything possible to be ready to start in Rio, because it´s her peak of this season

 

Quote

Cibulková to the medias today:

 

Unfortunately, the doctor informed me that my heel is not in ok, there a inflammation.. so he didn´t recommenden me to start at the Olympics, but the chance is still alive. Now I have to go for MRI Tomorrow. Then we will know more, so we'll see on Saturday.  I have to re-think the whole thing in my mind once again yet, because it's a very difficult decision... But be sure, That I will do all my best to be ready for Rio. It's the peak of the season for me,

 

 

 

The treatment should last five to ten days, while the Olympics tournament already starts on August 6 in 8 days

He's in for sure. 4 players withdrew + Stakhovsky who was first under the line declined.

    • Italy will boycott the Azeri stage for protest against the international federation.
    • Likely for Tannheimer, quite unlikely for Galmace Paulin. She's far from being assured to even start in the WC before turning 20. Basically she'd have to get a spot this season, which could actually happen if she takes the extra-ticket at the JWCH. Anyway I don't see her making her way to gold in Oslo. Tänglander has a few seasons to do it, we'll see.       Quite surprisingly so, indeed. Barring her horrendous finish Richard would have made it 2 in one go. We should have some more names in the list in 2025.
    • There are some of Slovakia's finest young squads at the World Juniors in recent years
    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
