 medalists according Gracenote:

Gold:

Women's K4 500m in sprint canoeing, Wojciech Nowicki (athletics - men;s hammer throw), Aleksandra Mirosław (sport climbing - women's speed), Men's team in indoor volleyball

Silver:

Iga Świątek (tennis - women's singles), Paweł Fajdek (athletics - men's hammer throw - for me it's wishful thinking ), Katarzyna Wasick (swimming - women's 50m freestyle - even more wishful thinking ), Karolina Naja/Anna Puławska (Women's K2 500 in sprint canoeing), men's quadruple sculls in rowing

Bronze:

Natalia Kaczmarek (athletics - women's 400m), women's team epée in fencing

team. As expected we are sending best possible team, besides those athletes who are injured (Anna Kiełbasińska, Dariusz Kowaluk and Dominik Kopeć), not yet ready after pregnancy (Małgorzata Hołub-Kowalik) or Pia Skrzyrzowska who is focused on individual races on hurdles. I would want to see all 5 relays to be qualified, but 3 are most realistic, I wont be surprised if it will be even less after last week failures everywhere....

Its still somehow possible that we will have two quotas in mens individual sprint or its wishfull thinking?

Canada wins in photo finish!!!

Congrats for quota.

Win for Bibic now, women's team sprint quota for Canada, it will complete perfect day for them with men's team sprint quota now? Let see.......

Mexico beats France, Poland beats Germany in women's first round races, surprises, I'm hoping that surprises (positive for us) will happen in men's event too.

Tension is rising in Middle East, according rumors huge attack on Israel from Iran will start in hours, I'm hoping that it won't too big as it's expected and all @Dnl @MHSN and other Israeli and Iranian users and citizines will be safe.

Its reported that our pairs which will fight for two quotas are Dawid Tomala/Katarzyna Zdziebło and Maher Ben Hlima/Olga Chojecka.

Good bye Olympics... However both Czechia and Canada arent favourites against GB and France either, I think..

How match ups are determined? 1st with 8th, 2nd with 7th and so on, or maybe different?

Canada have bigger chance for Paris than us, at least for now.

Points are awarded based on final placing. NOCs need to get into top 8 to progress to next round though

Thanks to Germany we will be in top8, but Canada and Czechia are higher than us now.... I'm hoping that our guys will race better in next hours. But this worse performance was somehow expected after recent financial and mental issues...

Stupid question, but points to ranking will be awarded after qualifications or after main competition?

Czechia is slower than Italy in qualification, I guess its good for us?

men's +102kg, Olympic Quota places:  ()  and  (Continental quota)

 

next in line:  (given that  will choose the -102kg class,  is basically certain to be qualified, too)

Is that first quota for Iraq?

Team  for this event. I have no idea how we didn't qualify anyone in individual event yet, so, let's hope that at least one duet will qualify here. 

 Angelika Cichocka (athletics, 800/1500m) announced her retirement today at age of 36. I'm sad that she never made a final race at Olympics and not win medal at Outdoor World Championships, she was one of best runners ever who never succeed to have a medal at the biggest events, mainly because often injuries.

And it's just beginning of the wave when our best athletes will announce retirement before/after Olympics this year  

Also  Zofia Noceti-Klepacka (windsurfing), silver medalist of London Olympics and multiple medalists of World Championships and European Championships announced the same decision like Angelika two days ago, though she will yet compete in few more events this year.

It seems like will be absent from OG in weightlifting for the first time since 1948

 

A historical collapse of the sport which is still third in our medal table haul (only behind athletics and boxing).

Weronika will start tomorrow or when?
