And Majlinda Kelmendi won gold for Kosovo at 2013 judo world championships.

A typical Svitolina match 

She will lost tonight against Linette  (Yes, it was joke)

Thanks, fixed

Right, Fixed !  sorry.

It's K4-500m isn't it?

No one noticed that Kathinka von Deichmann became first ever tennis player from  to play in GS singles main draw.  She won all three matches in qualifications without dropping a set.

Lisa Carrington's dominance is over?
 
Btw, Dorota Borowska only started canoeing 5 years ago at age 17 so it's quite an achievement for her to get a medal here!

I voted YES but only because this is a traditional sport and not because of AIBA. I'm agree with all of you who say that AIBA must change...and there are a lot of changes to do... (personally I don't think this federation will be changed soon, same for scoring rules, unfortunatly).

Well, I am just guessing. They've made baseball5 for some reason. This thing is a joke, because there's no even a bat nor pitcher, but it needs no much space, just 8 players in team and is made with thoughts of making it an urban sport. I also think it's a terrible idea, in opposition to other urban sports like 3x3 basketball, but IOC likes terrible ideas. Also it's easier to develope baseball5 than that existing co-ed slowpitch softball which is very little popular and needs more money.

If that joke of a sport that is baseball5 ever makes it to the Olympics I am done.

Mexico's Suzannah Brookshire today: only run against the  Netherlands (on a wild pitch) and only run against  New Zealand (home run). 
 
Also Dallas Escobedo's pitching today: 2 complete games, 14 innings, 232 pitch count, 21 strikeouts, 0,57 WHIP. WOW

Fajnie widzieć tu kogoś z Polski, pozdrawiam. Bardzo ciekawe te Twoje typy. Ja już planuję urlop w pracy na Tokio. Tym razem jeszcze przed tv, ale Paryż 2024 mam nadzieję zobaczyć już na miejscu. A potem, kto wie, może Warszawa 2044? :-) To byłoby moje marzenie. Pozdrawiam serdecznie. RG

Poland
  Archery: 4 / 2 / 0              Our "federation" will probably ruin it.

Athletics: 80 / 70 / 50              We're European powerhouse.

Badminton: 4 / 2 / 1             Someone will surely qualify, but that's it.

Baseball: 0 / 0 / 0               It would be great if our boys will qualify for the European Championships, but the our are not too big.

Boxing: 3 / 2 / 1             Again, someone should make it.

Canoeing - Slalom: 4 / 2 / 1            Hard to say atm.

Canoeing - Sprint: 15 / 12 / 10          There will be some medal chances.

Cycling - BMX: 0 / 0 / 0               It's a surprise if someone from Poland starts in a professional international competition.

Cycling - Road: 8 / 6 / 5             Simiralry to Rio Olympics (7 were there).

Diving: 0 / 0 / 0           Maybe in Paris.

Equestrian: 3 / 1 / 0       We're left with memories.

Fencing: 8 / 6 / 4         Women's epee or foil team should make it.

Field Hockey: 0 / 0 / 0      Hardly any chances.

Football: 18 / 0 / 0        Men's team has some (but very small) chances, while women's team is already eliminated.

Golf: 1 / 0 / 0             Maybe Adrian Meronk will be able to qualify.

Gymnastics - Artistic: 2 / 1 / 0         Someone in women's events should make it.

Gymnastics - Rhythmic: 0 / 0 / 0        The group did quite well at European Champs, but it's still not enough.

Gymnastics - Trampoline: 0 / 0 / 0            No way.

Handball: 12 / 0 / 0           The men's team is in the biggest slump ever and the only way for them to qualify is to be win European Championsips, but maybe women's one would make it.

Judo: 6 / 4 / 3          Not more than a team.

Softball: 0 / 0 / 0                  Our team is able to qualify for the OQT but this is an absolute maximum.

Sport Climbing: 2 / 1 / 0         We have specialists in speed, but I think someone will be able to qualify for the combined.

Taekwondo: 6 / 4 / 2        Should be better than in Rio (2 men were there).

Tennis: 8 / 5 / 3            Probably 1 man in singles and pair in doubles and 2 women in singles and pair in doubles. So someone will start in mixed as always.

Triathlon: 2 / 1 / 0       Probably one woman.
