I don't like assumptions, but I don't trust North Korea because they could pull these athletes from competition and escape authorities a long time due to COVID issues, which is a good time to actually dope. Especially if they look this strong.

Ah right, I guess I am in a country where WLHOUSE TV is available then.

Where can we watch this? I see that olympic channel does have streams with playback, but I can’t find them. Are they geoblocked and only available in certain countries?

Decathlon is stacked again, even without the Olympic champion. Looking up to that one big time.

Exactly that. Putting your sport behind an exclusive paywall for all events basically means that they only can shine once in four years. Mind you, I like the sports at the olympics a lot, but there is so much more that I can watch either for free or on a deal package.

Netherlands is not looking good now in recurve anyway, coverage or no coverage. Our women aren't making a step forward while on the men's side it is basically over and done with. I don't know who is going to take P4 for us in LA then, because that was a recurring theme. At least compound is there.

I get the feeling this is going from bad to worse with many sports. I mean, archery isn’t going anywhere here if we are forced to pay a subscription to watch the worlds and have nothing else to go off. I mean, it is a fun sport, but to me not fun enough to pay 10 euro’s to watch this tourney.

Orro was one of the best in the tourney, but Vargas was the queen of em all IMHO. But yeah, she didn’t win the title

Even though we needed to clean up shop earlier, we won against the hosts with our young team. I guess that's all we can do, even while dealing with injuries Serbia and Japan will be too much.

Austria losing conceding 10 twice. Not up for it against the big boys sadly.

She may well be my favourite non-Dutch/Spanish athlete of all time. Absolutely heartbreaking news, really have a hard time taking it in. Brilliant biathlete and a great personality inside and outside of the sport. Rest in peace...

Oh, the ever high and mighty American superiors. They are the best and can't do anything wrong, oh my. I'm not afraid that many athletes will be banned though. It won't be a good look on the success of the multi-sport event that should be all about American pride.

I understand it sucks to get 20+ medals and not a single gold naturally, but the state of the sport is fine like that. I would be happy with 5 medals. However, I see people complaining here when we only have a single medal, which I can't understand. This relay medal was definitely not expected and we just had a single event in which a medal was a possibility (100 breaststroke), not counting Water Polo. Complaining about luck in swimming feels a bit superfluous to me though, yeah, if a swimmer swims the WR every time, they won't be beaten until someone else swims the WR. But that's not how it works. The only time I would say someone can be considered 'lucky' is if they win with a slower time than another swimmer that won the semi.

These times in this 100 backstroke were crazy.

Everyone started pretty quickly, yeah. In the end the top performer was clearly Quadarella though.
