You got the two weakest teams?

Expand  

Group is a bit funny for us,but will play against Italy/Mne/Croatia or Spain/USA in 1/4 and that is not good at all.

It's like this

Front-runner:Serbia.There isn't much to say.Anything less than gold medal will be considered as a failure.

Medal contenders/Title threat:Croatia,Montenegro,Hungary,Italy.The traditional powers.They will fight for a medal,hoping for a Serbia's bad day to include the gold one.

Semifinal/Medal threat:Greece,Spain,Australia,USA.A traditional power-Spain- but abstinence from success through some years,3 competitive teams with lows and highs

looking for the upset.

Brazil has improved a lot,it is the home team but it is difficult to advance further.Not impossible,though,

Japan and France may fight had,but......

On the first group,places 1-2 seem locked for Serbia+Hungary

Greece and Australia will compete for the third place.

On the second group France doesn't seem able to avoid the last spot,while beyond the other five teams almost any combination seems possible,ok maybe Spain and USA

won't be at first 2 places together,but each of theam can advance leaving one of the other 3 favourites out.

Agree?

    • It's Australian Nationals that Ceccon will be competing at where he'll be allowed in the A Final. Trials aren't until June.   I'm quite excited to see what times he puts up and hope he doesn't scratch any events from his huge program (100/200 FR, 50/100/200 BK, 50/100 FL).

    • by the way, there are three named Reale in Italian men's sabre team, are they triplets or what?
    • yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss,LIthuanian tv WILL FINALLY be showing diamond league comps .
    • Good start for Canada. Cuba seems to be our biggest threat.   Unlike the men, the United States women don't seem to be progressing. Still a few years until the Olympics.
    • Well now's time for a little summary of my experience attending Stop 1.   Overall it was a nice experience, my first time visiting that venue in particular. It brought me some memories from my time at 2011 PanAm Games, seeing athletes from many countries. Now the venue is kind of dated, and it really needs some serious maintenance. For me it was unacceptable that the restrooms for the general public were in poor conditions, and also some sections need a fresh layer of paint, not to mention the heavy layer of dust in the ceiling. Thank God no debris fall in to the pool or on the spectators, but you may see a couple of pigeons continually flying around the swimming complex, even disrupting Mark Hrytsenko's last dive in 10m platform, before being sent away by Ruslan Ternovoi.   there was a pretty large number of Chinese fans on Saturday that came to support their team with flags & banners; however, their overall conduct was very poor, most of them crossing into the "top section" denying people who paid those tickets their rightful seats, ignoring and even shoving the few security elements at the venue and disrupting the general silence by replaying videos with loud sound or standing to take pictures while the divers were competing. Not that the Mexican fans were better; at times they were very disrespectful, particularly with divers preceding local competitors, since the cheered very loudly, ignoring the results (whether bad or good) of the former.   Among my personal highlights was the fact I had the opportunity to meet the Cuevas twins, who won a silver in 3m synchro and with only 14 are considered our next big stars in this sport, and also two time Olympic medalist in 10m synchro Alejandra Orozco, who was very active during the event, often oversawing and helping in any way needed, not to mention very kind and attentive to anyone asking for a photo. Also in attendance was Olympic figure skater Donovan Carrillo, whom I also asked for a photo.   I had an opportunity to see Maddison Keeney at the small cafeteria after winning a bronze in 3m synchro; she was very polite and gracious, accepting to take photos even when she needed to take a break and finish her sandwich; that same day I ran into Moritz Wesemann on my way back to my seat after getting a beer, and on the last day I almost bumped into Jack Laugher (he was going "incognito" mode while trying to decide what to grab from the food carts outside the main building).   So in general, I had a pleasant experience and would love to attend another event in the future. To top it off, there was a brief take of me during Sunday's men's 3m finals on WA stories, which of course I've already downloaded for keeps. I hope to find some time to upload some of the pictures I took; not the ones with me & above mentioned athletes since I'm not to photogenic, but of the few photos of the competition and the practice time that I find are worthy.

    • After the first period of today's game against Spain, I had a small hope the team could fight for a medal; but it seems they will instead contest the relegation.
