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.

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:
 

Quote

 

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.

    • The Democrats have only themselves to blame for the outcome. However, just to think what were two candidates for a president of the most powerful country is just laughable. The meltdown of European countries on these results is quite a popcorn moment though, love to see it, especially the German one.  Also, someone said RIP Ukraine, RIP Palestinians - like Palestinians were doing so well over the past year while Democrats were still in charge, so now is gonna be even worse? Yeah, Trump might not be as generous in helping Ukraine though.   
    • because jews decide everything in USA , no matter voters are ...have you ever heard about "tampering"...jews killed Kennedy  , Monica Iivinsky sucked Bill Clinton , Satanyahu did put an item of spy into the toilet of Boris Johnson ..etc ...etc ,   tampering votes shocked you
    • What I'm surprised at here is that the sunrise and sunset both change by 27/28 minutes over those two weeks, providing almost an hour more of sunlight from the beginning of the Games to the end. I didn't realize it changed that fast. Growing up in Canada, I always felt like one day in late October we suddenly got 4 hours less sunlight, and one day in early April we suddenly got 4 hours more.

    • He's a businessman and the world simply doesn't remember what the world looks like when USA adopts isolationism. Trump will get involved if only he can make a profit. And his #1 geopolitical enemy is China. Not Russia, North Korea or Iran but China. Modern society especially in Europe simply doesn't understand that becuse nobody is old enough to remember the Monroe Doctrine which predates fascism by a full century. I don't think even in USA they call James Monroe a fascist
    • Fans of FC Heidenheim making a lot of noise outside my front window just now.  
    • Vast majority of Americans will disagree with you. That's all that counts. I dont see many differences in so called fascism between democrats and republicans. Both were bombing any country they picked, both were ruining systems they wanted to.  I prefer reds more because they are at least honest about it. Also, i dont like what this ultraliberalism brought to our whole Earth. Whoever opposes this level of insanity will have my vote.  
    • YEC Semi-Finals are set:   Aryna Sabalenka vs Cori Gauff Barbora Krejcikova vs Zheng Qinwen   Krecikova beating Gauff in two sets means Iga Świątek was eliminated with 2-1 record. Sabalenka clinched Year-End #1 after winning the first two matches and Świątek not winning all three RR matches before already.
    • He is fascist. Even use the same narration like famous german/Austrian painter.
