  1. Jeremy Sochan was drafted 9th overall by the San Antonio Spurs!
  2. The last Olympic high jump champion who used the straddle technique Juri Tarmak passed away at the age of 75.
  3. Awkward no interview with the world champion. Obviously doesn't speak English
  4. No-brainer. This multi-sport European Championships made no sense from the start and who knows how long that idea keeps going. Athletics is big enough it doesn't need to share the table with other sports.
  5. People usually don't like to work longer. Raising taxes & forcing people to work longer always works against politicians and loses them support. The same way Civic Platform lost power in 2015. Donald Tusk also raised the retirement age and next thing you know CP lost elections and they are losing them in the last 7 years. It's gotten so bad Tusk now says he won't raise the retirement age again if his party is back in power (Law & Justice government lowered the retirement age to the previous mark of 65 for men & 60 for women).
  6. Italy is having a good champs for sure, some 17yo won 100m breaststoke? Also I thought Meilutyte has retired? Good to see her win a medal 10 years after the London shock.
  7. Macron loses majority in French Parliament. Funny how raising the retirement age level or even suggesting that usually loses you votes? https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-61859881
  8. Two retirements in the women's final for Zhang & Bencic which means Haddad Maia wins Birmingham and Jabeur wins Berlin.
  9. Hubert Hurkacz wins the Halle tournament 61 64 over Daniil Medvedev Nothing like a Polish victory over a Russian on a German soil
  10. Another grass final for Haddad Maia who beat Simona Halep in three sets. She will be a favorite vs the Chinese veteran Zhang Shuai who also needed three sets to beat Sorana Cirstea. The Wimbledon odds for Haddad Maia will be very interesting
  11. Kaczmarek 50,24 & Kielbasinska 50,28 PB behind Miller-Uibo. I feel like there's a real chance a second woman will break 50 secs. later this season especially with Miller-Uibo being the rabbit.
  12. Hubert Hurkacz beat Nick Kyrgios 46 76 76 and advances into Halle final vs Medvedev.
  13. Maria Ugolkova - sounds like a Russian whose wealthy parents obtained Swiss citizenship?
  14. Clearly a move aimed for a predicted German gold medal. Like Irena Szewinska was always handing out medals in hammer or race walking back in the day
  15. Yeah, so extreme kayak is basically a speedway-like 4 boat race like I thought. Meh.
  16. Pudar into 100m Butterfly final. That's one flag in swimming I didn't expect to see in a global swimming final. Osman made the final by 0,02.
  17. Isn't the course already cross-like? Or do you mean a vertical difference like in alpine skiing?
  18. What is extreme kayak? Several kayaks doing the course at the same time?
  19. Nothing going for the new line-up of the women's quadruple sculls so far. Two double Olympic medallists Kobus-Zawojska & Sajdak (both over 30yo) have been replaced by younger girls and they finished last twice and 5th in a repechage
