Can’t keep getting away with this @NearPup

They were quite close to going 2-0 up in sets, and demolished China in set 1 though. Neither of us are watching the game so it’s kind of hard to tell how the Netherlands are performing, but China has their A-squad for week 2 (in addition to Zhu Ting being back) so I’d assume they’re playing well.

Table tennis legend Timo Boll has officially announced his retirement. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C7emmgHt-7A/?igsh=Y3VnaWR2YTdydWFi Paris 2024 will be his final tournament. I’ll post a bit about him “Athletes Retirements” thread when the time comes.

Canada isn’t looking like the team we saw in Rio, so you should have no problem securing the Olympic ticket.

He’s 19.

Sara Kali with a 5-0 win over Cuba to advance to the round of 16 in women’s 66kg!

Yep you’re right Platform was the correct term.

Winzer if you can hear me, can you please sub in Baker during the clutch moments of the set? Edit: She listened!!

@CCB here’s your chance… looking like it’ll be a 3-0 sweep

Eh start. Plummer having herself a game though.

Hopefully Messi will be the 3rd But the proximity from the Copa America to the Olympics does make it unlikely.

The crowd in Arlington is so weak. USA are playing and less than half of the seats are filled.

I will also add that despite not being the fastest of in season athletes, DeGrasse has still won 4/5 of his races. Bodes well for Paris.

Even if it were Krieber Gagnon going I think the outcome would be the same. Frascadore would probably need a good draw.

Oh I know he’s done platform diving in the past, just thought he was focusing on cliff diving at the moment

60 days to go until the opening ceremony!! (we’ll just ignore the fact that I’m a day late)

Where did you find out that information?

As far as the upcoming Olympics goes, I’ll be rooting for out of the smaller nations

Has Gary Hunt made the switch to high diving from cliff diving? Or is it only for the Olympics.

Ruien Xiao received a reallocated host nation quota in women’s epee, improving our team size in fencing to 15 athletes!

Mondo Duplantis so close to breaking the WR on his final attempt

Pretty decent 3:34.50 in the men’s 1500m for Charles Philibert-Thiboutot, but he faded quite badly near the end.
