speaking of devil, have you heard the story when our hockey team had an audience with the Pope before the Winter Olympics in Torino, and someone from the team had the great idea to give to the pope a gift and for some reason choosed our captain's jersey. you know, the former captain. a certain Miroslav Šatan which as you know is by english pronunciation written somehow like that

Just a routine maintenance which I prefer to do before the Olympics

The Belgian team is prepared to participate when Danish fans are planned to cheer for Christian Eriksen at the 10 minute mark. Belgium is planning to kick the ball out and applaud with the fans in the stadium and around the country. Pure class!

Dear Judo Family,checking of the Olympic qualification list is still in progress. It will be published as soon as it is ready. Lol they changed it

Hi everyone. Long time no see. Long story short, I've had difficulty signing in here for about a year now, but I've been following along. Thank you to everyone here that is keeping everything up to date. Thank you to everyone recently who has been keeping me up to date on all the Olympic qualifying and summaries. It's been a crazy last few months (for everyone, I'm sure) so I haven't had a chance to look into things myself. This site is always a great source for everything Olympics. I'm living in Beijing currently, looking forward to the Olympics here next year. I live very close to some venues. But first Tokyo! Thanks again to everyone! GO HABS GO!

There won't be. The UCI rankings will be used to seed the runs.

As long as i am concerned, he doesnt exist anymore. Doncic can play and he cant. Shameful really.

"the Summer equivalent of Prince Albert of Monaco"? Seriously? Johannessen may very well be on the way to a European Tour Card, Campos is on the PGA Tour, Yuan (at the moment) on the way to a PGA Tour card, Gavin Green is on the European Tour and Zanotti the same. That's the bottom five at the moment all on (or with chances of reaching) the top 2 tours. The main issue is that the golf schedule is already packed and the Olympics haven't got the prestige (yet). Plenty of major golfers still feel strongly about participating and some of those who withdrew 5 years ago have made it clear that they regret doing so. The universality is a major part of the Olympics and one of few things that still show some of the spirit of the first Olympic Games. Making a selection where even decent golfing nations like Denmark and Germany would struggle to qualify (in the men's tournament) would make things so unolympic that even I as a supporter of Olympic golf would say that it should be left out!

Germany scored more goals than France and still lost ... Also this goal alone was worth to unretire Hummels from the national Team. He did his job as a secret agent perfectly.

The reason GB withdrew was scheduling with two other events taking place in the same session which would have involved women who would have swum in the relay. Given that it was the weakest of the seven GB relay teams it was decided to give priority to the individual events. Similar factors may have played into Poland's decision.

italian members of TO and Sindo= ecstatic

I don't think it was, you can see him poking the ball with his off foot when he's trying to clear the second time, which is why he whiffed. Looks like he wasn't really paying attention for the first clear attempt (this was just after half time) and panicked during his second clear attempt. Either way it's an all time terrible own goal.

Apparently police found a bomb in a car near to the stadium

Try to erase this one now!

Heywoodu mark Jinx attempt ?

Does make Xhaka a bit of an asshole captain though The best captains are those who don't want to make everyone believe they are more important than everyone else

A while ago it was one of the NOCs that had published pdfs with these times on their website and I also think those files appeared on this forum. But now I can't find them anymore online ?

Well, he got lucky it happened in Munich and not somewhere else where, you know, they shoot first and then ask

Not really. I've seen only articles on the internet sites and mostly for the laugh sections. It was a fun joke at work though, whenever someone drank different things, it was followed by "Drink water" and a nod.

Is media in your countries also giving attention to the Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Pogba 'incidents' regarding Coca Cola and Heineken? Totally unworthy of attention but I guess media has nothing better to do

Hi, I believe this link will help you a lot But sadly, no detailed schedule for swimming preliminaries is available (my guess is FINA has no clue about the number of heats) https://totallympics.com/qualification-tracker/tokyo2020/tokyo-2020-schedule-by-sport/

Poor hungarians, don't they know that politics and freedom of speech are tolerated only one way. Back to detention school i'm afraid.

Funny how Lier is always the crime scene of these Ukraine-Poland controversies. Must be the most hated Belgian town in Poland. p.s. I don't think this appeal stands a chance. If they remove Ukraine, then they also must remove the whole Chinese team.

Poland wrote a letter to the FEI requesting that the Lier result be invalidated. It probably won't help, but it's a good decision. These are not fair play rules.

Fuck, I think there's a chance that we will play without fans against England at the World Cup qualifiers.... https://theathletic.com/news/uefa-hungary-homophobia-euro-2020/HjLHn1O6pB0t This was bound to happen, the match was played on the same day when the parliament voted in favor of the anti-LGBT law. And ofc every time the West will punish Hungarians (and therefore Orbán) for this, Orbán's support will grow here.

If only FINA was also good at checking...

They are just waiting for the checks to clear

No one opened the debate so I´ll start it, I think this kit is just beautiful

Grass specialist or not, when you're leading 6-0, 4-1 and even get five matchpoints and you still lose the final (at home), that's really nothing else but a huge, huge choke

Former world number 4 Kiki Bertens (WTA 20) announced today she stops playing tennis after the Games. So we will see her in Tokio in the singles tournament and doubles with Demi Schuurs for the last time.

But it's funny every time

That's certainly not the first time you tell that story in here!

It went totally downhill after a huge choke against Alison Riske of all people in Rosmalen in 2019. From then on, it was gone, with only a good moment here and there and nothing more. Too bad, she of course has had a career most professionals won't reach (like basically anyone who's been top-10 for a while), but there was much more in it than she got out of it.

And he just got suspended for one game for mouthing off at the N.Macedonia player https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/57499915

I just came to answer.... I believe that we will have an update about it in a few days But, I was wondering the same... Won't there be seeding run this time?

I believe that we will have an update about it in a few days

Toto by byla pecka, kdyby se to povedlo!!!! Jinak aktualizoval jsem seznam potvrzených nominací :-) Už jsme pokořili číslo 70!

No problem with the limits on countries and think the ranking is fine for bringing in other non-traditional countries Personally, I'd try for 64 person fields with a straight knock out match play tournament (seeded)

He wont play for next ten years. Long live professional sport and his majesty dolar

Sadly Aiofe's Olympic dreams are over. There are 16 reallocations here, 8 per each gender. If you reject men's trap quota which your federation won't, gets the men's trap quota. Quotas cannot be exchanged between genders at all, so it's either 0 or 1 men's trap quota. That would mean imbalance of gender.

The battle begins between tennis and golf to see how many of the qualified players won't attend the Games.

From a totally objective point of view, I think this one sound fair.

nevermind, great play from HUN, nothing is over, they still can very well surprise FRA or GER

Defending Olympic Champion Carolina Marin withdraws from Tokyo Olympics. She was the gold medal favorite this year too having reached finals in all the events she participated and winning 4 of them (4/5 tournaments this year) She'll undergo a major surgery. Wishing her a speedy recovery !
