News like this really makes me wonder how much truth is in that. I mean, who reports it, some South Korean agency? :p

It's indeed South Korean media but other media totally distorted what they reported

Bring back the 1991 borders

Panipak “Tennis” Wongpattanakit, who won a gold medal for taekwondo at the 2024 Paris Olympics, travelled to Wat Sothonwararam Worawiharn in Chachoengsao on Thursday to fulfil her vow.

 

She had promised the temple’s deity, Luang Pho Sothon, 100,000 boiled eggs if she won gold at the Games.

 

Upon arrival, the temple’s abbot presented the gold medallist with a 9-inch brass statue of Luang Pho Sothon as well as a gold necklace with a gold-encased amulet of the deity.

 

The boiled eggs offered to the deity were later distributed to 20 schools in the province.

Paris 2024 will turn a (small) profit. But a profit nevertheless.

Also the overall budget only increased a little bit from the original planing. From 3,807 billions in 2018 to 4,481 in 2024

Well done, that is great news. :clap::thumbup: Hopefully it encourages other European cities to keep bidding. 

 

However it also.proves you need high ticket sales which are less likely in LA & Brisbane.

    • Spring Nationals, Day #3   Sara Curtis MVP of day 3 of the Italian Spring Nationals!    after improving her PB in the women's 100m freestyle already in the morning heats, in the afternoon final she destroyed not only her previous limit, but also the 9-year old National Record, previously held by our swimming icon Federica Pellegrini 53.01 is the new record   in the same race, Emma Virginia Menicucci was 2nd in 54.14 (big new PB for her) and Chiara Tarantino was 3rd in 54.28   given that Tarantino has a sub-54 PB and also Sofia Morini (here completely out of shape) is a sub-54 swimmer at her best, now the Italian women's 4*100m free relay begins to look like a good one (sure, USA and AUS are out of reach, but the rest of the world is not so far away anymore   more on Today's Finals:   men's 800m Free: 1.Davide Marchello, 7.53.32   women's 200m IM: 1.Sara Franceschi, 2.10.95; 2.Anita Gastaldi, 2.10.97 (PB), both World qualifying times   men's 200m IM: 1.Alberto Razzetti, 1.58.05 (again definitely below the expectations, something's not good with him this week ); 2.Christian Mantegazza, 1.58.95 (big PB, class of 2005)   men's 100m Free: 1.Manuel Frigo, 48.34; 2.Carlos D'Ambrosio, 48.60 (very disappointed with him...he should have swum 1 second faster); 3.Lorenzo Zazzeri, 48.62; 4.Alessandro Miressi, 48.74  even if we can add Ceccon and maybe Deplano (if he convince himself he can swim fast also the 100m and not only the 50m), the 4*100m relay's perspective is really depressing    women's 1500m Free: 1.Simona Quadarella, 16.03.77   in the club relays (the 4*100m medley relays), among the women, Sara Curtis swam "only" 1.01 in the backstroke leg, Bottazzo had a good 1.05.40 in the breastroke leg, confirming his win over the individual distance wasn't a fluke and Tarantino (53.68) and Menicucci (54.11) confirmed the value of their clockings from the individual race also with the flying start among the men, Bacico swam even better than the individual race winning effort (53.42) in the backstroke leg, Martinenghi edged out Viberti in the breastroke leg (58.70 to 58.99), Burdisso swam a decent 50.8 in the fly leg and finally Manuel Frigo confirmed himself the best 100m free specialist of the moment with an impressive 47.2 stint
