He deserved this medal. very well done. sad for Tur but he can blame only himself for not reacting to the Gemran attack.

 

Bit sad farewell for Tóth, one of our biggest athlete, but huge thanks and bravo for everything you did for our sport Matej. Thanks.

Disgusting result in the women's long jump. That German is clearly doping.    /s

Yeah I wished Toth more than this, but with world and Olympic gold, his career is definitely complete :d

It was 40! Only an hour or so to go.

That is maybe a silent protest by Villanueva: He doesn't want the 50km at the Olympics to end and go the way of C2 Slalom and Individual Track Cycling Pursuit.

Wooooow, what a suprise, so amazing! Thanks you Dawid. I will work like a zombie later, but now I am so happy.  Nobody expected that medal, but Top 10 was highly possible for all 3 Polish.

That's it. Dawid is last Olympic champion on 50km race walk! What a beautiful story :cheer: 

 

@Monzanator @Adriano We can count his medal as always at least one surprising medal which always happen at each Games, like Sylwia Bogacka in London or Oktawia Nowacka in Rio :d

      Wrestling in the USA is strong thanks to its universities, but surprisingly, they are not very strong in judo. I wonder why?

      Wrestling UWW European Championships 2026

      By copravolley · Posted

      Women's wrestling has been at the Olympics for first time in 2004, just like women`s boxing, so it used to be a men's sport on the all world, maybe without Japan. But Russia retains the culture of the former USSR, where women could always participate in almost all sports, unlike Iran under the ayatollahs, etc Sure, Russia has its various Islamic republics: Dagestan, Chechnya- but the 50 years of the USSR and its ideas and propagandas about life and sport still had a significant impact for people. However, the cradle of women's wrestling is and always has been Japan-, but judo has probably always been more popular there, so I'm sure a lot of talented girls go there, not wrestling.

      Russia was never a super power in women's wrestling, they are just another decent team.   why ? that's simple. most of top Russian freestyle wrestlers are from Dagestan. probably 7-8 from the current team in Albania. and I assume in that region women are not encouraged to take this sport. if you remove Dagestan from Russia, their men's freestyle team will do more or less the same.   I'm not familiar with the Russian culture in general but I assume even nation-wide (and not only Dagestan) this is considered the men's sport.    of course in the World Championship those 3 teams you mentioned can go toe to toe with Russia or even do better. from this Russian team I only see Sadulaev to win the gold at worlds. (+ Sidakov if he returns and maybe Uguev depending on Japan's squad )   still the depth of Russian freestyle is unmatched. they can send their #5 guy and be still competitive for a top 6 finish, can't say the same about any other team.

      In the women's, however, Russia took a strong beating from Ukraine, but surely there wasn't a all top-tier Russian girls here? Judo, in my opinion, is developing better and more countries are at the leading countries, than wrestling. Situation is slightly better in the world than in Europe, because we do have the USA, Japan and Iran. Unfortunately in Europe, this sport is a joke and is becoming a second table tennis, where people from other countries are naturalized and win medals for others, even though they have nothing in common with them.

      Turienzo is developing! She's still away from the level of Nolot, Moroz and Kampman but I expect a good performance at the WCh. Her peak years are still to come (not even 20 yet).

      Wrestling UWW European Championships 2026

      By MHSN · Posted

      in the first night of freestyle finals, Russia won 4 out of 5 golds. they have 2 in the final tomorrow, I think they can reach their pre-tournament goal of winning 6 golds.   but interestingly all 20 medalists of tonight were either from Ex-Soviet countries or Russian mercenaries representing somewhere else   I think it's fair to say men's freestyle wrestling is dead and buried in Europe unfortunately. (I mean the old Europe excluding Ex-Soviets) hopefully the new UWW policy pushes some of these countries to restart their own program instead of just buying mercenaries but that will take time.
