The find out of the Championships is Neeraj, Lily Das and the Relay team....

do not forget the fabulous performance by ajoy kumar saroj  who finished joint 4th in the 1500m for men and also yugant who did wonders for the long jump he finished 5th in qualification ( but broke his arm ) .....also tamilarasan who just missed out the finals in the boys 400mh..........the only slight disappointment was beant singh in the 800m and the 4*400 girls team who underperformed

The six atheletes who could make it big are ( a possible olympic medallist are ) from whom we saw here are  :clap:

 

Neeraj Of course ...he is young enough to further improve ..already he is the best in the world ( top 10 in the world this year in the seniors ) so he can be a future olympic medalist for India if we build him up ...he has shown tremendous improvement this year alone .......

 

Ajay saroj - Joint 4th in time in the world u20 is awesome and I saw the race he was the coolest amongst the runners... he has the potential for greatness 

 

Lily das - She has further broken her PB to 4.17 and she is still very young just crossing 17...and for the first time she is getting the attention she deserves this year  

 

Jisna Mathew - she is getting very good training as part of the relay team and she was disqualified because of lane crossing but she had finished third in her heats so she would have been  a semi finalist and may be even a finalist and she is the youngest in this team so definitely good potential and she is getting trained by Usha so will do well 

 

yugant  -was 5th in the prelims with just 2 jumps ...has done 7.8 already with some help and focus can also get to beyond 8+ easily being the top 5 in the heats of the world championship showed his potential 

 

Tamilarasan -  Young again and he just missed going to the finals - he finished 12th overall - age versus performance shows that again could be oner of the best in the world soon 

 

These six are already amongst the best in the world ...the two relay teams ahve the potential again to amongst the best

That reminds me of Kendra Harrison of U.S. breaking 110 m hurdles world record day before yesterday but failed to qualify for Rio.

There they have 3 places and hence no chance for them...But India don't have any person, hence possible if they want.

Indian express reports that UWW  has said quota stays with India. There's going to be a meeting between the Nada panel and narsingh on Wednesday. He has asked for a retest . panel is considering it. Wfi is supporting him. In the meantime - the preparation of the entire wrestling team is in jeopardy as the training camp in Georgia has now been indefinitely postponed. Looks like even Yogi and others will now suffer for the selfishness of one man. I once considered this man to be among the country's greatest sporting heroes. Our heroes sure have feet of clay.

We cannot say this unless we are sure that Sushil camp has contaminated Narsingh sample. If not, Narsingh too should share the blame.

 

But, why are they cancelling the whole camp ? There are other wrestlers who can continue.

    • Italy will boycott the Azeri stage for protest against the international federation.
    • Likely for Tannheimer, quite unlikely for Galmace Paulin. She's far from being assured to even start in the WC before turning 20. Basically she'd have to get a spot this season, which could actually happen if she takes the extra-ticket at the JWCH. Anyway I don't see her making her way to gold in Oslo. Tänglander has a few seasons to do it, we'll see.       Quite surprisingly so, indeed. Barring her horrendous finish Richard would have made it 2 in one go. We should have some more names in the list in 2025.
    • There are some of Slovakia's finest young squads at the World Juniors in recent years
    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
