Shooting: Pooja Ghatkar lost ..finished 4th ..couple of bad shots in tension...lost her lead ..

3 World Cups in 2016, Pooja qualified in the finals in 2 of them and finished 4th in both, and finished 11th in the other one. While Ayonika and Apurvi were not even close to reaching the finals in any of the 3 World cup events this year, are we going to be stubborn like the archery team and not send Pooja in Rio? Come on guys, pick players in form.

Agreed. I would put him even ahead of Yogeshwar as a medal prospect. Yogeshwar did not participate in the world championships. So, it difficult to judge his chances.

 

For me, Babita is not a medal prospect. She had lost in 2 Olympic qualifying events. Vinesh is a medal prospect, although bit of a longshot.

Babita is also a World Championship medallist, she has medals from Asian Championships, SF appearances in Asian Games, and last year's Asian Championships definitely make her a medal contender. She has been performing well

The Shooting squad was announced in March, while some nations are yet to announce their squads, is there a possibility to get Pooja Ghatkar in the squad replacing maybe Ayonika? Guys let me know if you have any information. Very sad if Pooja doesn't go, a genuine in form medal prospect.

Her opponent was dopped! That was a fraud win so it doesn't take away credit from Babita.

If this is the case then Saina's Olympic medal was also due to the retirement of Xin. Here you'll say Saina deserved it because she proved to be fitter than her opponent.

Same way Babita was clean, her opponent wasn't

No Rohan, that's a separate thing, we exchanged Sanjeev's quota(3 pos) with Trap event and it had been passed. Here we have 2 quota in 10m air rifle, it's abt choosing the right athlete which our Federation has the complete right.

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway 
    • c'mon, guys! relax! sciallatevi un po'!    you're making me sick...it's just the season start and this is a sport where only the world championship (and Olympic, in the specific years) medals count   don't get mad for a couple of races held thousend miles away from home after the team had already passed their first climax (the internal selection)...there are still 2 full seasons before the Olympics
    • Super Round Results   21/11    b.   2-0  b.   9-1   22/11    b.   8-2  b.   9-6   nothing is decided yet, all teams still have a thoretical chance to make the Gold Medal match   Tomorrow, the last day of the Super Round sees  facing the  at Noon local time (4 a.m. CET) and  facing  at 7 p.m. local time (11 a.m. CET)   the medal games are scheduled for Sunday, BMM at Noon local, GMM at 7 p.m. local
    • very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)

    • is considering US born goalie Joey Daccord for the upcoming 4 Nations Face-Off.    https://thehockeynews.com/news/team-canada-is-seriously-considering-usa-born-joey-daccord-for-4-nations-face-off   .923 SV% in 13 games, and 9-3-1 on the season. Would be a big pickup for our goalie issues.
