Well, since when do the judges in this discipline change the placings instead of the actual notes?

So, how is everybody feeling about the songs in this edition? I've ran through all of them once earlier today, and of course waiting for Australia if they select their song. For the first time ever in how many years that we're doing this, I don't have a favourite yet

I'm happy to allow @KingOfTheRhinos to enter since he said he had internet issues. So if he wants to post his entry then he can go ahead but it will be @Hipooo who will have the final decision as his voting window has already begun.

Lets see what @Hipooo and @OlympicIRL will say for that.

Tsitsipas and his ATP 500 finals Good to see Djokovic still finishing on a high note and is very likely to end a season in top 10, despite missing AO, USO, Indian Wells, Miami, Canada, Cincinnati and -2000 points for winning Wimbledon.

Yeah, didn't have internet for awhile. Sad that I missed the deadline because if it.

Yeah, the final was great with many high quality played points. Something WTA truly deserves. And Iga showed once again why she is world number one. Also happy to see Krejcikova raised again, which makes her RG run last year less fluke Excellent serving in the third set.

Firstly she said that she doesn't know what to say then she got a huge ovation from the crowd, people shouting Thank You in Polish (there were many many Polish fans in the stands, Ostrava is very close to Polish border), then she started to cry, said that it's probably the hardest moment of the tournament to say anything now, she said she cried in the last game and she knows it wasn't very professional but she cried with happiness - because all her dreams actually came true, regardless she wins or loses. So she wanted to thank the crowd because they make dreams come true together with her. She mentioned that the atmosphere at this tournament was special and the crowd made her not to give up and fight till the end. Thanks to organizers, congrats to Barbora, thanks to sponsors and her team, and her father who came there which was special and he did well. And she said that tomorrow is World Mental Health Day and she will donate all the prize money from this tournament to a non-profit organization in Poland and she hopes it will change sth. If she had won, the prize money would be bigger but... That's probably it. Anyway, that was a really decent game of tennis, I really liked it. 3 hours long but very interesting all the time.

And in many cases even more than the national federations

One of the best matches of the year!

Huge victory for them, and in front of the home crowd! guaranteed a spot on the men’s side as well, so not all is lost for them. Bronze medal matches in both genders will determine the second quota place.

Krejcikova with the upset of the week, breaks Swiatek's 21 consecutive sets won in finals and wins the title in Ostrava in a 3h16m crazy battle. Iga cried a lot in the end but didn't understand a thing she said cause she talked in polish

Yeah, that was incredibly sad. Elliott could have put him back but he screwed up :-( ..... If Elliott was in the final, it would be mean that the 4th quota place would to the 5th one from the final, who would be Prokop because Delaney placed in front of him in quali was rulled out in the first step. Like this, Prokop is is 6th and also 1st who does not earn the quota. Also unlucky because he lost the quota do Nillson. The same shooter who took the Olympic spot from Nýdrle before the games in Tokyo..... Hopefully Czech will get the second quota later ..... Anyways, congrats to all qualified for the Olympics

with Olympic quotas

And if I recall correctly they wanted to host the Pan Am Games. Improbable now with the current political climate.

on the contrary Germany's women team has 2 naturalized chinese players

Never mind Barteková is out. Hocková secured the spot for anyway. And Barteková will still have plenty of chances to secure the other spot.

Thw Olympic Quota is clearly assigned to Malovichko.

general response from Portuguese people in social media: “perfect group to go to the playoffs”

Rode was third in the USA nationals a few weeks ago...but they use a ranking combining different competitions to select their team for WCh and World Cups, and she didn't make the top 3.

Oh, that was scary.

Bolivia has 0 medals, after hosting the last edition. Pretty bad perfromance by them

This abomination has been around since the 2018 South American Games. It’s the reason why I don’t bother with the South American Games, the Bolivarian Games and the Junior Pan American Games

Canada up to 14th in the world rankings. We'd need to go up at least 3 more spots (4 if Russia gets unbanned) in order to be in a decent position to qualify to the Olympics.

Canada's judo team is currently in the "has a good team, but few medal favourites" stage which can be thrilling and frustrating.

Gotta say this is one of the worst results systems I have ever seen. We will have to deal with this sh*t for the foreseeable future as well

Could have been worse. You could have become a Montreal Expos fan (If you're old enough)

Gran apodo "Maligno" Torres, ja. Respecto al tema becas, los únicos que deben estar más o menos bien los de excelencia olímpica, pero son contados con los dedos de una mano. Alguien como Pérez Maurice cuanto mucho tendrá una beca de excelencia panamericana (o quizás menos) y esa estaba en 55 mil. La mayoría igual recibe otra de Secretaría, pero son chirolas. Y si tienen que irse a competir al exterior, imposible. Pero bueno, es la triste realidad no del deporte sino del país en general. Pretender que el contexto sea el de pre 2017 es absurdo, estamos al borde de +100% de inflación. Todos somos más pobres cada año y es lo que hay. Igual está bien que la peleen y hagan ruido, sobre todo que se viene año electoral y pueden rascar algo más. Pero a nivel estructural no creo que haya modificaciones salvo que repongan el impuesto ENARD. Ya con eso sería demasiado dado el contexto.

With Argentina it was 48-1. I watched a bit of it, even caught their only goal. They remind me when I played youth school handball and once we had to play a team from upper category who had all +1.85m guys, we lost like 30-1 and I scored the only goal. Never been prouder of myself in sport

Which means we will be once again at 41 nations… seems like it’s our unspoken limit We did have 42 nations at the Jubilee edition (TISC Annual 2018) but then Turkey didn’t post their votes so we finished with 41 nations again. Though Antarctica unofficially took part as a guest but officially 41 is still the record. It’s still a very impressive number but would just love to finally break the record.

There is a misunderstanding here. The so-called challengers are the minnows, while those who can cause an upset are the real "challengers" as we may understand it.

The "so called European Champion" Dang Qiu was born in Nürtingen, Germany, was raised in Germany, lived his whole life in Germany and played since his youth for Germany. His parents are born Chinese, but he's no Chinese player who was naturalized later in life.

Nice 8 countries qualified. Paraguay's first ever qualifier Karate athlete (since qualification started in 2011)

Rowing Canada has been a mess for at least a decade if my memory serves me right.

" Another Olympic rower said that athletes continue to climb the podium “despite” the national organization. She questioned why coach Michelle Darvill wasn’t retained after guiding the women’s eight to Olympic gold. In 2021, Darvill was named both the Canadian coach of the year for all sports, by the Coaching Association of Canada and world rowing coach of the year. “She didn’t have a job the day after we won the Olympics,” she said. “Rowing Canada ended her contract the day after we won the Olympics, she was on a plane with us, no longer an employee of Rowing Canada.” Darvill is now the head coach of the Dutch women’s team, which won seven medals at the recent world championships in the Czech Republic. -Globe and Mail
