Van Tichelt wins by armbar! Finally some Olympic joy for his coach Robert Krawczyk who was ipponed 4 secs from the end in Athens OG SF while leading on points and finished 5th thereafter. Now let's see if Ono finally scores gold for Japan

Lasha bows out with a bronze. Muki really blew it in the semis. It was always near impossible for him to beat Lasha IMO.

Telma Monteiro won 5 WC medals and 11 EC medals, it's hard to imagine she never finished higher than 9th at the Olympics until now! I guess he can retire now? Well done! Caproriu was in tears but at least she has the silver from London

Tomasz Zielinski who was supposed to enter the 94 kg category was caught doping and is out of the Games. And this comes as no surprise at all. Back in June our federation president Szymon Kolecki (ex-two time Olympic silver medalist) kicked out both him and Krzysztof Szramiak for training in their own clubs rather than under the eye of the federation coaches and facilities. But the damn board overturned that decision and allowed him to enter. And now he gets busted. Good frickin' riddance. The guy was shady by a country mile and Kolecki has the last laugh. The board should basically resign in wake of this news. What a bunch of morons! Btw, T. Zielinski is the EC silver medallist and the brother of Adrian who won gold in London OG. I hope he's banned for life now.

Malgorzata Kozaczuk upsets Shen Chen 15-9 and advances into Round of 16! Bogna Jozwiak never had a chance vs Velikaya though. Aleksandra Socha had a terrible draw, if she beats Gulotta of Italy she will face the reigning Olympic champion Kim JY.

Kuziutina had nothing left in the tank. Kelmendi vs Nakamura is the semis but it's basically like a final.

Kelmendi looked very nervous there. Must have had some London vibes at the back of her mind,

Any chance of Tandrevold making the team? Our Polsat commentators wanted her to be on the team after the Tyumen heroics and well, the NOR female cast is as weak as I can remember. If not, then perhaps she can at least take a trip to Khanty-Mansiysk for the WC finale?

Our guys are so slow they will be lapped regardless

I don't know why they bother with Krystyna Guzik in the mixed relay? It's obvious our guys will blow any chance of a Top 10 result we could have
