I don't pay much attention to mixed events, but today the Brazilian girl was part of the mixed team in badminton that won the bronze medal.

Even though this does not really count for the country, I'm really happy because this is a huge achievement for the athlete. Jaqueline Lima is from Piaui, one of the poorest states in Brazil. It's beautiful to be able to see how sports can change lives.

nah at the point we are, we take everything available official or not :d

 

Same here brother. :d The sites already writing how we got a gold in a shooting event, even though it was a mixed NOC. 

 

I know that the medals aren't the most important thing in these games, but there are too may mixed NOC medals and events for my liking.

Why are there only 6 people in the wrestling categories. :facepalm:

Because Youth Olympics and anything more than 6 is not urban enough.

Even with only CJ she could (if she were in better shape) have beaten the Maltese girl with both snatch and CJ :d
