5 medals for Serbia at the end. All in judo. LOOOL. Not sure If Georgia or Serbia and 4. place for women's volleyball team. Ok, 5 is ok number. I said that 5 is our maximum, but I was sure that one medal will be from athletics

 

But they are stll very young. Who know what will be with them for few years.

Wait, it's over now? I thought there was more sports today

Today I came back from Hungary. The tennis competition was terrible to follow - only the official site with final score of each game, no electronic scoreboards (only the manual one at the umpire's chair), one court out of nine had tribunes, all other were covered and you had to climb to see, what's behind the fence, no press info (I had to use the board for athletes). Great facilities at athletics (livescore on touchscreens for a half of a media tribune seemed to be enough for us), though volunteers somehow forgot to bring athletes from few events to the mixed zone. Fantastic atmosphere at judo, very little interest from media for the volleyball. Very nice people and a really good organisation (as for the city of Győr having public traffic quite complicated for people outside of the city).
