mixed feelings about today's Italian results...

 

on one side, we should be happy because Odette Giuffrida won our first Gold Medal at the European Champs since 2008 :yikes: but at the same time we must be very disappointed with all the other results and in particular I'm really worried about Manuel Lombardo, who was competing in "his" -66kg class for the first time in almost a year (last time out, he won the Masters in China in January) and couldn't go beyond the first round (he was unlucky, as he had to face the eventual champion Safarov and actually he didn't even lost on the mat, since he was disqualified for an illegal leverage to the opponent's arm while they were all square)...

however, the issue is not his shape or his talent, but the fact that he has a lot of troubles in making the weight, so he has quite a few chances to compete in his Olympic class before Tokyo 2020 (in 2021) and it's a problem if he does waste those chances...

 

by the way, today is history...and I'm loking forward to tomorrow, when our Olympic Champion Fabio Basile should be back on the mat after a lot of injuries to his elbow and the covid positive test a few weeks ago...

 

about the rest of today's finals, as already mentioned, Van Snick and Perez Box won the award for the longest match of the afternoon, but the fight of the day was the Russian derby in the men's -60kg Gold Medal bout without any doubt...high class judo...

Just now, DaniSRB said:

After gold at Ec for juniors, and bronze at u23 now senior medal for Stojadinov :yes

yeah, that was one of the most outstanding results from today...

 

it looks that she's a very talented girl and might have a very bright future...

 

by the way, Serbia had quite a few good results today (some of them not really expected), not only Stojadinov's medal...

very disappointing day for Italy...

 

Basile started very well, but once he got into the semis, he was dead and gone...he said he wasn't phisically in good shape (understandable...he was just coming off covid-19 quarantine, when obviously he wasn't able to train at all), but I think he also made some capital mistakes under a mental point of view against Shavdatuashvili in their semifinal bout...

no comment on the bronze medal bout...he was clearly not even interested in playing that fight...

 

Alice Bellandi had a very strong competition, but she was heavily penalized by the refs in both the semifinal match against Pinot (very generous call the deciding waza-ari in the golden score period) and the bronze medal match (actually, this was a pure robbery by the Hungarian ref, clearly taking all of his decisions against the Italian girl by prejudice)...

 

the other Italian fighters lost too early in the competition...they're just not good enough (and if they were, they didn't show it at all yesterday morning)...

 

in general, yesterday was Georgia's day on the men's side, with the light of the hyper-talent Tato Grigalashivili shining more than anything...

watching that guy is pure joy, a Judo clinic every time he's on the mat...

 

meanwhile France swept the field in the women's divisions...but that was quite expected, as Agbegnenou and Gahie are the reigning world champions...

at least, Margaux Pinot gifted us with with a nice surprising win (even if it was Van Dijke that had the unexpected win over Gahie in the semifinal)...

 

today is the final day of the individual competitions...the big guys (and girls) are gonna take the center stage...

    • Even though I'm not the biggest fan of her, always sucks to see a career ending through injury and not on your own terms 
    • This is going to have an effect on very likely 0 athletes, possibly 1 or 2 we don't really know about yet. It's really mostly the cheapest possible way for them to make a sort of political statement, without having any significant backlash since it won't really affect anyone at the top level of international sports.   Edit: worded a bit wrong, I was thrown off by everywhere 'trans women' being mentioned as the target of this. Of course there is also the somewhat larger category of DSD and the likes, which will certainly affect a few athletes - unfortunately they are often thrown under the bus or mentioned as 'not really women anyway' or something like that, despite, you know, being.
    • Mary Rand has died aged 86. The first British woman to win a Gold in track and field at the 1964 Tokyo Games (where she also took home a further two medals in the Women’s 4x100m relay and Pentathlon).
    • Athing Mu competed in the USA trials in 2024 and 2025 post the 2023 rule changes. She also won Gold in 2022 and Bronze in 2023.    Jelimo the jury is out. She doesn’t look male like the other two do.   
    • People focus on trans people because it's easier to pinpoint the affected athletes. Meanwhile it's the athletes with (suspected) DSDs that will have tougher time to convince the authorities and the public opinion that they belong to women's sports.
    • badminton queen Carolina Marin announced that she can't take part into the home Europeans in the upcoming weeks because of her injured knee and calls it a career 😭  
    • yes, there are (or there was, at least) don't forget that the women's 800m had world and olympic champions like Semenya, Jelimo and Nyonsaba...basically, it was 10 years of DSD winners only the same Athing Mu was suspected to be DSD (never confirmed, but somehow she totally disappeared after Tokyo) then, there were the 2 girls from Namibia (1 won a medal over 200m in Tokyo) in Italy we have the living scandal Valentina Petrillo (a paralympian!!!), who's actually a real man not to mention the weightlifter from who took part into the Tokyo Games so, it's a real problem all around the globe, not just a US crusade against a few woke idiots  
    • First big meet ofthe Outdoor Tour is the Maury Plant from Melbourne tomorrow morning.  Good few people from Poland last weekend have made the long plane trip to Oz.   https://worldathletics.org/competitions/world-athletics-continental-tour/news/world-olympic-stars-maurie-plant-melbourne
    • With the MLB season getting underway and with the recent conclusion of the World Baseball Classic, here are the players on opening day rosters broken down by place of birth (including injured players):    United States: 694  Dominican Republic: 89  Venezuela: 60  Cuba: 20  Canada: 19  Japan: 14  Puerto Rico: 14  Mexico: 7  Panama: 5  Colombia: 3  Curacao: 3  South Korea: 3  Aruba: 1  Bahamas: 1  Germany: 1  Great Britain: 1  Honduras: 1  Italy: 1  Nicaragua: 1  Peru: 1  Taiwan: 1
