Hey guys, I'm back after a few years :-). I like the 14 medals, but don't agree with 1 gold, expecting 3 golds in Shooting this time round.

Sailing ILCA Laser Radial World Championships 2019-Results

Women:- Nethra in 66th place

She has a decent chance of qualifying for Olympics. There are two spots on offer at Asian qualification event. Among the not qualified Asian nations, she has finished in 2nd place behind Thai girl in both Asian Games and here. So, Nethra and Thai girl should be favourites to win the two Asian quotas.

Instead of all crap; let us focus on the main sports. The rest are all of also-ran type.

 

These sports are:

1. Shooting

2. Wrestling

3. Badminton

4. Boxing

5. Hockey

6. Archery

7. Weightlifting

8. Athletics

 

India has traditionally performed well at the Olympics in these disciplines. 

 

The rest like Judo, Swimming, etc. are just a waste of time at the Olympics.

 

Let's have a guess from the participants about the number of medals we can get.

Just read somewhere Vijendra Singh wants to participate in the Olympics. Also, what about Vikas Krishan, Neeraj Goyat and may Kom? Will they participate? May's weight class < 49 kg is not in the Olympic schedule and 49-51 has Nikhat Zareen participating.

Hi all....With exactly one year to go for 2020 olympics its definitely time to look into how India is shaping out for tokyo.

 

Best bets:

 

Excellent form of Bajrang punia... i hope he will maintain that consistency for one more year

Tremendous form of Saurabh Choudhary in 10 m Air pistol

Performance in Shooting Mixed events both 10 m Air pistol and 10 m Air Rifle.... i think India has won gold in these categories at many events

 

I think if India is going to win Gold at Tokyo it has to be from above

Good bets

 

Vinesha Phogat in womens wrestling... she has some thing in her.... even though she has changed her weight category to 53 kgs (which am unable to understand even now considering she won the gold at Asiad in 50 kgs) she is too good to be defeated by wrestler from countries other than japan or russia

 

Mirabhai Chanu in weight lifting…. only worrying factor is change in weight category from 48 kgs to 49 kgs

 

Amit phangal in Boxing... again worrying factor is change in weight category to 52 kgs from 49 kgs in which he won gold at Asiad

 

Womens boxing - I have a strong feeling that atleast one of womens boxer will win a medal...

    • It's good that Argentina is starting to get back on track economically. Every year, all of our alpine skiing teams train in August in Argentina in Ushuaia: "Fine del Mundo", as it advertises itself.
    • The relation of Trump with Russia and, more specific, with Putin is probably the most controversial (being generous) thing of the presidence of Trump, i dont believe the same but is clearly that China help democrats in that election, both are playing their games.   In Argentina the society is clearly divided, the people who are in the left side of the politics, peronist and kirchnerism are very against the goverment, propably the only genuine "rigth-wing" goverment since the recovery of the democracy in 1983. For me and the most part who are in the rigth wing: libertarians, nacionalist and conservatives, is probably the best goverment we see to this days, he made in his first year with a very few legislators in the congress some big and good changes:   1) In the economical: the inflation is only 3% per month since a more of 15% in the last months of the last year, Argentina has now fiscal, financial and comercial surplus-   2) Our country didnt have fighter planes and the goverment buy 24  American F16  -   3) He chances the electoral sistem for a "single ballot" sistem, we have an obsolete electoral sistem that doesnt change from the 19 century and specially, the peronist use for make fraud.   4) In my personal case, he really update the tax sistem for smal/medium profesionals and traders.......and that save us to pay the 50% of our earnings to the state.   With a big expectations in the goverment, its better than i thinked before.
    • It could be better, or it could be much worse, for example, if the accusations that he has been accepting large amounts of money from Russia since 2017 are confirmed. Now let Harris win, which will end Trump's political career and I hope that in 4 years the Republicans will put up someone more predictable.     btw, how is this controversial president of Argentina doing?
    • More predictable is not always better, for me the goverment of Biden was one of the worst of the History of USA and i cant imagine what can happen with even a worse version like Harris is.   I hope, for the contrary, Trump be elected and "may be" the things changes for the better in the world.
    • I once read that Harris had never been to Europe before 2020, when she became vice president. On the other hand, her foreign policy will be more predictable, because it will be a continuation of Biden's policies. That is why I hope Harris wins, although the bookmakers are betting on Trump.
    • Harris is totally green on foreign policy. It will probably be a policy 100% led by Biden's people. Harris' main campaign emphasis is on abortion and women's rights.
    • So much for "everybody's laughing at us if we elect Harris"
    • My favorite tennis tournaments of the year (wta/atp finals)
    • was also invited to the special edition of the Bolivarian Games and seems like  is not participating.
