What's up with that Egypt vs Croatia score? Croatia in some transition period or what?

Apparently the rifles for biathlon team got stuck in Atlanta airport and nobody knows if they will make it on time for today's first event

Adelaide 2 has been a total disaster the last two days. Both SF cancelled after withdrawals and now Daria Kasatkina wins a grand total of two games in the final vs Belinda Bencic. There is no way a 500 level event should be played the week before a Grand Slam

Paula Badosa (abductor strain) and Ajla Tomlajnovic (right knee) are out of Australian Open

Lucky losers into MD are Leolie Jeanjean (plays Nadia Podoroska) and Laura Pigossi (plays Caty McNally).

First Top 10 for in men's relay since Hochfilzen 2006 (also 10th place)

The jinx is on. Guigonnat on penalty loop.

Meanwhile Norway takes the lead after 6/8 shoots.

Men's relay has started. Laegreid on penalty loop on the first leg. Switzerland had a fall.

I don't know what time it is in Canada but Alexandria Loutitt has won the World Cup event in Zao!

Obviously first victory for Canada in women's ski jumping. Steve Collins and Horst Bulau won W.Cups among men in the 1980s.

Well deserved!

Just now, SalamAkhi said:

I know this seems strange but it's Roeiseland, not Steiner, for the last spot.

Yeah, I totally forgot about Olsbu Actually I was checking Knotten among the Norwegians

Slettemark finished in 21st place and should also make the mass start (together with Stremous, Jislova, Dzhima & Steiner).

Jeanmonnot 20/20 and that should be 2nd place.

Ukaleq Slettermark 20/20!!! Surely must be a new PB and World Cup points?

Vittozzi 20/20 and that should be the win. Fialkova 19/20.

Simon & Tandrevold also 19/20.

Fialkova & Vittozzi can still go 20/20...

Simon, Wierer & Tandrevold 15/15.

As usual Ruhpolding's easy entrance on the range results in above average shooting.

Elisa Gasparin takes a tumble 10 seconds into the race

Qualifiers have been placed. Hartono gets Shelby Rogers, Bejlek gets Barbora Krejcikova in Czech derby and B. Fruhvirtova gets Aliaksandra Sasnovich.

And it's happened, 15yo Brenda Fruhvirtova has made the AO Main Draw after a 2 hour 54 minute marathon in Q3!

Sara Bejlek at 16 years old is also into MD

Record swim across Tanganyika Lake?

Anna Karolina Schmiedlova makes AO MD beating Elizabeth Mandlik (Hana Mandlikova's daughter) 6-4 6-4 is some old almost Czechoslovakia of sorts derby  @hckošice

Poland has the same problem since 1989. Other than two terms of post-communists in charge (and one very lax ex-communist President who wasn't all that bad) we get the same group of post-Solidarnosc people running the show. However they've changed named twice within that period -->  KLD - UW - PO and PC - AWS - PiS

So it turns out Joe Biden was also keeping secret documents in private house & offices. Maybe this is also Donald Trump's fault?

What did you expect from two parties in power for 160 years? They are equally worthless.

France beats Poland 26-24.

Naomi Osaka announced she is pregnant and will not play this season. The mystery about her not entering Australian Open has been revealed (and made a complete mockery of The Guardian article the other day which claimed she is doing some kind of mini-rebellion against the system ).
