  1. The flag bearer of the Philippines will be golfer and Asian Games gold medalist, Yuka Saso. Isn't she the first golfer to be flag bearer at the Youth Olympics? Please correct me, if I'm wrong. https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/09/27/18/champion-golfer-yuka-saso-to-carry-philippine-flag-at-youth-olympics-opener
  2. 16-year old Wang Jianjiahe sets a new 400 m short course world record in 3.53.97 at a FINA World Cup in Budapest. She is the first woman/girl to go under the 3.54 mark at the distance on short course.
  3. Not everybody is Sagan, who wins the rainbow jersey every year
  4. Last 30 sec. Winning round Official time. New Danish record. Winning interview
  5. 15 minutes left 53.73 km/h Looks like a new Danish record (I hope haven't jinxed it )
  6. Ready to start Here goes the start.
  7. Hey everyone. I will go to Odense Velodrome today, where Bjerg's attempt will take place, and suppot him in his hour record attempt. I promise to post pictures and a couple of videos from his attempt. His attempt starts at 18:00 CET.
  8. The Danish record is 53.619 km/h, which is the second longest in the world, so it will not be easy for Bjerg to beat Toft Madsen's record. Toft Madsen set his record in Mexico, while Bjerg's attempt will be in Odense. Not really the same conditions. Toft Madsen's record at European ground is 52.324 km/h, Bjerg record is 52.311 km/h. Bjerg will very likely beat 52.324 km/h.
  9. Hopefully he can do better than Sakuyama, when he won the Summer Grand Prix in 2015: World Cup Overall: 47
  10. Me: Klimov wins the Summer Grand Prix, must mean he's also going to win the World cup. Betting all my money on Klimov as winner. Me, after the season is over:
  11. Update: AIBA's election committee confirms Rakhimov as the only candidate for president of AIBA. https://d152tffy3gbaeg.cloudfront.net/2018/10/List_approved_candidates_Election_Committee.pdf
  12. Chappuis suffered a injury in 2016-17 season. He had to end the season due to serious back pain. In April 2017, doctors later found a benign bone tumour, which had to be surgically removed. A bone transplant was necessary as well. He tried a comeback in March, where he came second in the French Championship. Later he decided to end his career. The surgery and the feelings he has been going through in the process after the surgery, are probably some of the main reasons for his retirement. On his facebook page he wrote: "This decision is the result of a long process, not without emotions, but liberating at the end."
  13. If AIBA promise to create somekind of mixed team event, IOC will probably look pass all the dodgy stuff.
  14. Uzbek, Gafur Rakhimov, is set to be confirmed as the only candidate to stand for president of AIBA after his sole rival, Kazakhstan's Serik Konakbayev, allegedly failed to get enough letters of support. The "problem" with this is that IOC have consistently warned members of AIBA to elect Rakhimov, because the US Treasury has described Rakhimov as "one of Uzbekistan’s leading criminals". IOC Executive Committee will begin a two-day meeting tomorrow where this whole mess will probably be discussed, and possible the future of boxing at the Olympics.
  15. Halep is in danger of missing the WTA Finals after today's scanning.
  16. At a World Cup meeting held on Friday 28th September in Zurich. Two things were discussed regarding the future of the World Cup. - An unofficial proposal has been made about reducing the quotas for the Top 30 nations in World Cup. - Harmonizing the parallel skiing event rules, which mean, finding one format that could be used in the 2019/20 season. Both discussion points will be either further discussed or decided upon at the next meeting in Dubrovnik in the spring. http://www.fis-ski.com/alpine-skiing/news-multimedia/news/article=the-stage-set-for-the-alpine-world-cup-2018.html
  17. The official death toll has risen above 1,200 in Indonesia after the devastating earthquake and tsunami which hit the country last week.
  18. Trinidad and Tobago just won their first ever set at a World Championship. They won third set 25:23 against Thailand.
  19. 800 meter runner, Keely Small, will be Australia's flag bearer. http://olympics.com.au/news/keely-small-announced-as-youth-olympic-flag-bearer
