Mohammed Gammoudi was interestingly another Tunisian who came to Tokyo as an unknown and created an upset.

Gammoudi created an upset in 1964, but he was upset by an even greater upset.

Does look like Luke Greenbank is the form that makes him a likely medal challenger in the 200m.

 

 

Relays will have to do a lot of the work or Team Gb will go notably backwards in terms of swimming medals.

Russia almost missed the final. I know they were without Kolesnikov and Rylov, but even with them i can't see how they can beat the US. Italy were great, but they were the only ones with the A team and will it be enough for a medal?

With Rapšys doing what he's doing, I'm just happy that we have Šidlauskas and Teterevkova that managed to qualify to their 100m breaststroke semi-finals, which is a very decent performance for Teterevkova when she's only 19 and Šidlauskas is fairly young in the swimming scene as well.

Here goes the swimming. I didn't know Daiya Seto is a cheater (not the doping kind), that makes it a lot easier to not feel sorry for him missing out on his home final :p Thanks commentator :d

So what's his story?

Adulterer - it’s not something that would have been such a big issue in terms of being on the team in the UK.

I see. That wouldn't stop me from supporting someone, although you gave a promise and if you can't fulfill that promise, then maybe you shouldn't marry. It's something they value in Japan.

Time for the super exciting second finals session :cheer:This will set the mark, if the US will be the usual dominator in the medal table, or they will take a hit.

    • Regarding the swimming they have added the 800m for men and the 1500m for women so cutting numbers would be odd. 
    • That quota I’ve been told by an athlete aiming to qualify who I know online. 
    • Has the quota for Canada been offically confirmed anyway, or is that just a rumour? I can't find anything on google about it (nor the suggested quota for England's athletes someone posted earlier).   12 per gender would make sense (it's roughly what Canada sent to Birmingham). 12 overall seems dumb.
    • Some sports have qualification systems   3x3 basketball (wheelchair) Para-cycling Powerlifting Weightlifting
    • In the past few games, Canada (and other nations) was given an overall athlete quota which they then divided it through the various sports.
    • Whose decision was this, Team Canada's or the Organising committes?
