You've got bronze of Justinas, I guess Laura will get silver, if they start together in mixed they might get gold as they did in 2014 in Warsaw.

 

Especially since last year's UIPM Congress decided to change the value of one swimming second - it's now two points (previously three points). You can see it during qualifications - when A group starts with fencing, the classification doesn't change a lot after swimming, when group B starts with swimming the classification changes dramatically after fencing.

 

And another interesting thing - Poland with silver in team. With no athletes in TOP 15. And only 7 points of loss to golden Egypt, who had Hamad in 4th and Hamed in 6th. Koreans with only two finalist (third result taken to count from qualifications) with bronze.

 

Tomorrow my fingers crossed for Maliszewska, but I hope Földházi get something individually at last - in last few years she had many injuries and had very few chances to win something, but she is really talented (she won her Senior ECH gold before Junior WCH gold in 2013).

Unfortunately Laura don't want to start in relay, so Justinas will be competing together with Lina Batulevičiūtė. Don't have a lot of hope for Lina, although she might surprise everyone like she surprised with silver in women relay back in 2015 World Champs.

First time since 2011 I think (though I'm not sure) men's and women's relay not broadcasted live. Big announcement in January that Eurosport will broadcast the World Cup Final and World Champs - it ap

Arthur my man.... great personal best in the swim and well a not-so-good fencing round, but I forgive you for that...... but what I can't forgive you for is this very questionable choice of underwear.

Well, he's always been good, it's just been a long run of top 15's, which I wouldn't see as success for an athlete of his calibre. I'd say his golden age was 2009-13 and then he had a fall in form.

I remember that finish against Oktawia Nowacka. So maybe now it'll be a chance for a revenge ;)

Two days ago I was talking with someone from UIPM (not brave enough to introduce himself with his name) who was trying to convince me that they made huge progress during last years and the proof is a partnership with Eurosport (which results in "delayed live" broadcast). I answered and wrote how big regress they made:

2011-2012 – agreement with 247.tv - full coverage of swimming, fencing (one piste shown), riding and combined event with scores live on tv (in riding current classification, in combined intermediate times and shooting range)

2013 – agreement with Russian NTV+ – fencing and swimming in highlights only, full riding and combined with live results as above

2014 – inaugaration of the new live score system on UIPM website, used also during broadcast – in 2014 no live results during competition, no shooting range live, in 2015 fencing bonus round added shooting range appeared, still no intermediate results in riding and differences during run

2016 – inauguration of UIPM TV being also resignation from YouTube – no more live chat, where fans from all over the world could talk about pentathlon (sometimes with athletes not participating this time), as it was on YouTube, riding only with few athletes

 

Yesterday they finished live before medal ceremony of teams, in live results there was no information about it.

      There were probably prime ministers in Israel in the 90s who wanted to negotiate peace. I don't remember the names but I remember them from the TV news at the time. There were negotiations between Arafat - Clinton and someone from Israel. Then Sharon came and everything went to waste.

      I'm having a bad day and I don't want to watch this. Only a decisive victory for Ghiotto tomorrow can reassure me that these 2026 games won't be a complete failure.

      Alpine Skiing FIS World Cup 2024 - 2025

      https://www.fantaski.it/news/2024/11/22/tommaso-sala-si-rompe-il-crociato-in-allenamento.asp   Now the entire Italian team will be hanging on Vinatzer, who will finish maybe 30% of the races in the season. Tragedy. Sala was not an outstanding skier, but he could have made it to the top 10 several times. The biggest debacle in slalom in decades is coming  This winter seasons haven't even started yet but I'm fed up with him. We have regression in every discipline, Vittozzi disease, disaster in men`s alpine skiing, what else? Unfortunately, we have been much better in summer sports than in winter sports recently.

      Violette Braun is the first  woman in a World Cup since 2009. Today she obliterated the NR in the 1500 by 3 seconds (2'04) on a rather slow track. Second 1500 ever for her, first was in Inzell a few weeks back (2'07) with what seemed like very good conditions.   It means a lot of room for improvement and a good sign for the 3000 which is her real strong event at the moment - she lacks basic speed but had one of the fastest final laps today, 10th over Div A and B. Faster last than penultimate lap must be quite unusual too.
