Always happens with exotic countries. At least they didn't write that he was a medal favorite.

 

Italy is the most exotic country of them all :d:hyper:

But seriously, in one of the articles, it was stated that he got a quota from Sail Sydney, which is obviously not true. New Zealand got that, and shockingly, accepted it!

Did he not have any chance to compete in the Olympics at all anymore?

 

And obviously this doesn't make the whole story any less sad, it's still a teenager who drowned doing some fun diving...

 

Edit: it's not like the Olympics thing just appeared out of nowhere, over a month ago they were writing about him going to the Olympics already.
