I'd love to watch this. But Star+ has the rights in Latin America, and here in Uruguay it costs US$ 25 per month...2 points -
With France out IMO Poland is already champion. Italy too inexperienced to win a final against them, Slovenia not good enough, Brazil not in shape to beat them away, Argentina never beats Poland. Of course, this comment will age horribly tomorrow when they lose to USA.1 point

Xiao is expected absent from WCH and Zou's condition is not sure yet. Our 19-year-old young star Yang Haonan injured the ankle during the HB competition and then received 6.9 points only. If he will be recovered before the WCH is unknown yet. My prediction for WCH list is 5 out of 6 from Zhang Boheng, Sun Wei, Yang Jiaxin, Yang Haonan, Zou Jingyuan(PB) and You Hao(SR,PB).

Tang Xijing showed her stability as a veteran and Ou Yushan also performed well as she is still under recovery from surgery. Wei Xiaoyuan is competitive on UB as world champion. He Licheng and Zhang Jin are the only two with 5.2 difficulty on VT. Also Luo Rui have 14.85 UB and 14.65 BB on qualification. My prediction for WCH list is 5 out of 6 from Tang Xijing, Ou Yushan, He Licheng, Wei Xiaoyuan(UB), Zhang Jin(VT) and Luo Rui(UB,BB).1 point -

Some publishable pics from the accident. The plane burned completely. There no many news right now released to the media obviously, Only what we know is that Radoslav has 30% upper body burns, the safety belt on the seat did not work for some reason when the fire started burning on his gasoline-soaked clothing. it is a real miracle that he is still alive, let´s hope it will end well and he will survive.1 point

For once WTA draw didn't fall apart badly. Pliskova surprised me, she should beat Aryna too, at least she is serving better lol Would be awesome to see Swiatek-Pliskova, Garcia-Jabeur semis. On men's side, more or less completely open, Kyrgios might win it all at the end Cannot remember who on this forum was usually pissed by Berrettini's weak draws to reach SF or finals but he might do it again Maybe @Makedonas Anyway, I'd like to see Kyrgios-Berrettini and from bottom half... Sinner/Alcaraz-Tiafoe.1 point -

While the 2022 European Shotgun Championships continue in Larnaca, Cyprus, another blue ribbon shooting event with places in Paris up for grabs is taking place in a very different European city. Wrocław is the capital of Poland's southwestern Lower Silesian Voivodeship, with about 650,000 people calling it home. The city will be hosting the 2022 European 25m/50m Shooting Championships, with places at the 2024 Olympic Games on the line. Hosted at the shooting range of Polish top-flight football club Śląsk Wrocław, which also has top-tier teams in women's football and handball as well as being the reigning Polish basketball champion. The top two places (with the stipulation that the same country can't win both places) in four events will earn a spot for their country at the 2024 Olympics: the 50m Rifle 3 Positions for both genders, the Men's Rapid Fire Pistol and the Women's 25m Pistol. The first week of competition will be dedicated to junior competitions which do not earn quota places, but preliminary competition for the Olympic events starts on 12 September for all events apart from the Women's 50m Rifle 3 Positions, which starts on 13 September. On 14 September, the finals will take place: firstly the Women's 25m Pistol at 11:00 local time, before the Men's Rapid Fire Pistol at 17:00 and the Men's 50m Rifle 3 Positions at 19:00. The Women's 50m Rifle 3 Positions final will take place on 15 September at 17:00. It is too early for a start list, but there is guaranteed to be a range of talent on show. At Tokyo 2020, out of the twelve medallists in these events, seven were European, although four of these were Russian and will not be competing. The other three Europeans to medal in these events were Men's Rapid Fire Pistol champion Jean Quiquampoix of France, Men's 50m Rifle 3 Positions bronze medallist Milenko Sebić of Serbia, and champion in the Women's 50m Rifle 3 Positions event Nina Christen of Switzerland. While finding information on participation is not the easiest, the Swiss federation has confirmed that Christen will compete, so we will see at least one Olympic champion. This event has a different priority than it did in the Tokyo cycle, coming first in the schedule for shooters in this event. In the Tokyo Games, it was somewhere in the middle of the calendar. The Czech Republic and Italy got a place in the Men's 50m Rifle 3 Positions thanks to Petr Nymburský and Lorenzo Bacci, while in the Women's event it was Belarus' Maria Martynova and Denmark's Stine Nielsen. In the Men's Rapid Fire Pistol Italy's Riccardo Mazzetti and Azerbaijan's Ruslan Lunev earned a spot, while in the Women's 25m Pistol both places went to France thanks to Mathilde Lamolle and Celine Goberville, something that would be impossible this time around.1 point

First winter Olympic medalist Radoslav Židek (Torino 2006 SBX silver) crashed with his plane this evening near to the northern Slovak city of Bytča (He was the pilot) From Slovak media statement: Radoslav Židek, the snowboarder and first athlete who won a medal at the Winter Olympics for Slovakia since the independence (Torino 2006), was allegedly piloting a small motor plane that fell on Tuesday evening around 6:30 p.m. in the cadastral territory of the village of Petrovice in Bytča district. The Žilina Regional Police, TV Markíza and TV JOJ informs about it on its social network. Two men were injured in the fall. According to the police, all emergency services were dispatched to the crash site of the small plane, which subsequently caught fire. "Both men were taken to hospital for treatment. The cause of the fall is currently under investigation," the police added. "We immediately sent rescuers to help. However, the witnesses of the event loaded the injured person, who suffered 2nd degree burns, into a car before the arrival of the crew and took him to the hospital. The crew took him from them, treated him and took him to the hospital," said Alena Krčová, spokeswoman for the Operation Center of the SR Emergency Medical Service. According to spokeswoman Lenka Záteková, one of the participants in the plane crash was admitted to the Faculty Hospital and Polyclinic (FNsP) in Žilina. "The man suffered burns to his face, upper and lower limbs, and the burns cover 30 percent of his body surface. The patient is stabilized, conscious, and has undergone all necessary examinations. Under general anesthesia, our team of medical professionals is currently treating his burns in the operating room of the trauma surgery department," she said. TV Markíza was the first to report that the small motor plane was piloted by our first Winter Olympic medalist, Radoslav Židek. "The Olympian was sitting on the plane with his brother. He managed to get out without major damage after the impact. Radoslav Židek was trapped in the machine," he states. TV Markíza further reported that the plane crashed into a stable. The fire hit the pilot mainly in the area of the face and upper body. According to TV JOJ, the plane had technical problems during the flight and lost thrust. According to the mayor of the village of Petrovice, Anton Pláňavský, the pilot, Radoslav Židek, should have been doused in gasoline during the impact.0 points
