Hmm... how can I write this... Israel got disqualifed in Men's 4x400m, so Austria stays in the 2nd League and Israel goes down. They don't make it easy for you, @OlympicIRL... On the bright side, you didn't double jinx, only single jinxed

Do you know if they serve æbleskiver and medister together in Solvang around Christmas? If they do, it's like pissing on every Dane and take a dump on us..

@OlympicIRL Serbia got disqualified in the last event, Men's 4x400m Iceland got 2nd in the event, so they are promoted to 2nd League instead of Serbia. Nice job !

Well... "602.14. If the team of the host European Athletics Member Federation is not qualified to participate in the Super League, it shall be included in the Super League, as a ninth team, and such adjustments, as necessary, shall be made to the procedure described in 602.13.1 to 602.13.6. Note: The exception above (i.e. having 9 teams in the Super League) would be allowed only on the condition that the host venue foreseen has a 9-lane 400m track".

According to the new competition regulations for 2021, 9 teams are possible: "602.7. The participating teams shall be divided into a Super League (comprising 8 or, exceptionally, 9 teams), a First League (comprising 12 teams), a Second League (comprising 12 teams), and a Third League (comprising the remaining teams)". https://www.european-athletics.org/mm/Document/EventsMeetings/General/01/28/56/12/600-EuropeanTeamChampionshipsRegulations-inforcesfrom2021_English.pdf

Benjamin Williams with an Olympic Standard in men's triple jump with 17.14m A 40cm improvement of his PB! https://www.european-athletics.org/competitions/european-team-championships/2019/athletics/event/mens-triple-jump/phase=atm062100/index.html?intcmp=[#]-schline-calltoaction

I think it's because the organisers looked at the weather forecast and saw that the best chance for no rain would be around this time. They moved the pole vault from yesterday to today because of the chance of rain. Besides that, there are two pole vault events today, so scheduling could be a reason.

Also Ryan Sanchez with an OQT in men's 800m with 1:45.19. now have full quota (3 athletes) in men's 800m.

Tina Sutej achieves the Olympic Standard with 4.70m in women's pole vault

There is no qualification in relay, so this is the time they end with...

Lisa Ryzih decided to score 0 points with three missed attempts at 4.21m in women's pole vault

Meanwhile in the 2nd League... A female pole vaulter just set a new PR with 2.85m....

Only for top 4. No worries.

There were 62 participants in the men's qualification...

@Griff88 Okay, a twist in the "re-draw case". According to the Danish media, TV 2 SPORT, Kate Foo Kune, who was removed from the draw, has been suspended from all badminton since July due to an ongoing doping case. As a result, BWF initially conducted a draw with a player who themselves had suspended. According to several sources close to Kate Foo Kune, both the A and B test have turned out to be positive. http://sport.tv2.dk/badminton/2019-08-09-dopingsag-skyld-i-vm-kaos-suspenderet-spiller-var-med-i-lodtraekningen (in Danish)

Patryk Dobek achieved the Olympic Standard in men's 400m hurdles with 48.80.

It looks like BWF once again showed how flawed a federation they are. Anyhow, thanks for the info, @Griff88!

Okay that part. The first part of my post is basically just a copy/paste of the official statement from BWF. BWF's statement: "The Badminton World Federation (BWF) has conducted a re-draw of the women’s singles category at the TOTAL BWF World Championships 2019 in Basel, Switzerland. It was determined a player had mistakenly been included in the women’s singles entry list and the BWF has subsequently adjusted the entry list and conducted a re-draw". https://bwfworldchampionships.bwfbadminton.com/news-single/2019/08/09/womens-singles-re-draw-total-bwf-world-championships-2019/ If you say that her visa was rejected, why would BWF not say that, instead of say what they did?

What is the "it" you are referring to?

BWF has conducted a re-draw of the Women’s Singles because a player had mistakenly been included in the women’s singles entry list and the BWF has subsequently adjusted the entry list and conducted a re-draw.

I'm pretty impressed she can run 22.72 on a 2000m.That must be a world record?

@dcro

Well, Asgreen could likely win a medal in Men's ITT. You can take a nap and then I promise to wake you up

Gold and silver for ! What a TT by Price-Pejtersen!

Karsten Warholm is suffering with some stomach issues, so he is not going to start. Huge blow for the Norwegian team...
