Sorry for the late reply, because I don't follow all the news around this, but apparently in December the new Dutch coach (Bill Huck) was rather clear about Ligtlee: "She is too heavy and she knows it. She's overweight and she'll have to change that, because with this weight she won't be able to deliver world class performances."

 

So I guess all that is the reason for her not being that good anymore nowadays (logically if you saw her today, like she ate a 10-person lasagna dinner for breakfast).

No problem, wasnt online since thursday ...

To be honest: She always looked overweight to me ...

Today she was actually quiet good, sadly i had to work, so i couldnt watch any races till now.

Overall the Netherlands are doing really well here, Ligtlee probably would have won a medal in sprint, so then it would have looked even better. I think she has the best chance to beat Vogel in the next couple of years.

Very surprising results in mens sprint ...

You know that the level must be very bad when Levy reaches the semifinal ...

What do you guys think, how many of the gold medallists from here will win gold in Tokyo?

I would say something between 4 and 6.

Yep. In Rio 2016 one could explain it as just being really, really muscular overall, but this? No, sorry, but if you're a professional athlete in a sport like this, you can't be that big and have a belly that looks like mine. Still some time to Tokyo, so there's that, but she really needs to work on that to have any chance there.

They rang the bell twice, leading Shmeleva to stop a lap early in the women's keirin semi's

      Out of curiosity, I listened to a few podcasts about Turkmenistan today. This country has very large deposits of natural gas. In the 1990s, a simple a ordinary people lived quite well there. In the early 21st century, Turkmenistan signed several unfavorable gas deals with China and has practically gone bankrupt since then. 1/3 of the population (about 2 million out of 6 million- mostly young people) emigrated, mainly to Turkey, India, etc. The future of this country is blacka and uncertain. I don't know what other options they have? Russia, Turkey, the EU? Of course, in terms of selling gas. Perhaps sanctions of Russia's and isolation due to the war in Ukraine would be a chance for Turkmenistan to establish economic relations with the EU, but the new president would probably have to loosen and a little liberate up his country's domestic politics.

      A friend of mine who visited 97 countries of the world be in Turkmenistan (with Kunshamara, are the onlyones i know) and he tell me something that never see in another country: his presence was enough to make nervous to all the people, in restaurants, markets, etc, the presence of an "outsider" generate that.
