From Wikipedia Takács was born in Budapest and joined the Hungarian Army. By 1936, he was a world-class pistol shooter, but he was denied a place in the Hungarian shooting team for the 1936 Summer Olympics on the grounds that he was a sergeant, and only commissioned officers were allowed to compete. This prohibition was lifted in Hungary after the Berlin Games, and Takács had expectations of success at the 1940 Summer Olympics, scheduled to be held in Tokyo. During army training in 1938, his right hand was badly injured when a faulty grenade exploded. Takács was determined to continue his shooting career, and switched to shooting with his left hand. He practiced in secret, surprising his countrymen when he won the Hungarian national pistol shooting championship in the spring of 1939. He also was a member of the Hungarian team that won the 1939 UIT World Shooting Championships in the event. I thought switching hands was impressive which is why I voted for Takács in rapid fire pistol.

This is certainly interesting: https://oneelevenmg.com/jennifer-jones-joining-forces-with-team-zacharias-for-last-chapter-of-playing-career/

Although Netherlands is the greatest team in women's hockey olympic history I voted Australia because I can't stand to see them with the same votes as Zimbabwe's flukey gold medal win. they are clear for 2nd place, extremely dominant in Atlanta and Sydney.

Let's look what Borat's countrymen said about the war

When it rains, it pours? As for Croatia, we are proud to present out submission as follows... Jonathan is a rock band coming out of Rijeka, a city known for its alternative scene. Here in Szeged, they will present a song Falling. I hope some of you will enjoy it. CROATIA Jonathan - Falling

From what I know they have different personalities and they've never been very close, but the main reasons why they are not friends are: - in 2014 when Halep played her first GS final against Sharapova, Cirstea did not sent a goodluck message to Halep because "I'm not in Romania", according to Cirstea's explanations at that time - in 2017, after Halep lost her 2nd GS Final against Ostapenko, Cirstea became one of the best friends of Ostapenko - also in 2017 when Halep became no. 1 WTA, Cirstea did not congratulate Halep. Reason? "I was too busy, my schedule is too busy and I did not have time for this" Sure, all these reasons are hilarious but it's obvious that Cirstea is somehow jealous for Halep achievement. Anyway I like both of them and I'm proud of them for what they doing for Romania (they are 2 of the few Romanians who represent Romania at high level in sport). The big advantage of this match is that we have a player in next round

Sadly WA aka IAAF treated the field events like a pariah for years. They finally found an official excuse to disregard those events even more now.
