@rafalgorka will do a couple days of my predictions in a couple of days, if possible can you remind me? (anytime on Sunday works)

Shannon Westlake qualifies for the women’s 50m rifle 3 positions final! Only one Olympic quota up for grabs, but US has already secured the maximum two quotas and has two women in the final, a medal could do it for Canada.

QWR for Sagen Maddalena in women’s 50m rifle 3 positions (shooting)

Two medals for Canada to start Day 5! Catherine Choi/Josephine Wu win our first gold medal of the games in badminton, defeating USA’s Annie Xu/Kerry Xu 2-1 in the women’s doubles final! (were down 13-16 at one point in set three) Alizée Brien/Caroline Shaye Ann De Paiva also win bronze in rowing women’s double sculls.

Jessica Klimkait with a second consecutive victory over Christa Deguchi, to win women’s 57kg gold at the Abu Dhabi GS!

More Canadian updates. Along with the “loss” by Scarlett Delgado (albeit questionable), the worst result of the day has to be Cody Young’s R1 heat loss to Venezuela’s Francisco Bellorin. More from the surfing venue, Lima 2019 bronze medalist Sanoa Olin advances to R2 after a heat win over Lucia Indurian. (probably one of the toughest first round draws) Jake MacNeil/Alexander Russell advance to the quarterfinals in men’s beach volleyball, defeating Uruguay’s Hans Federico Hannibal Fuentes/Nicolas Llambias Carvalho 2-0! Canada advance to the quarterfinals in women’s team racquetball after a 2-1 tie win over Chile 2-1. Catherine Choi/Josephine Wu, Brian Yang, Adam Dong/Nyl Yakura, and Ty Lindeman/Josephine Wu all advance to their respective gold medal matches (women’s doubles/men’s singles/men’s doubles/mixed doubles) in badminton! Rebecca Marino starts off the Pan Am Games with her first ever win, defeating Guatemala’s Deborah Dominguez 2-0 to advance to the round of 16 in women’s singles. Tammara Thibeault and Charlie Cavanaugh both advance to the semifinals in their respective weightclasses (women’s 75kg/women’s 66kg), and are one win away from qualifying for the Olympics!

Sorry made a mistake, she’ll still be trying for the OQS, as mentioned on one of her climbing podcasts.

Alannah Yip wins bronze in women’s combined (speed climbing)

Gold for Pamela Ware in women’s 3m springboard!

And Zachary Clay takes it over Jayson Rampersad!

Sorry I haven’t been updating today’s action, been sick all day long. Still sick, but feeling much better than I did a couple of hours ago.

Julie Brousseau follows that up with gold in women’s 400m individual medley!

Maggie Mac Neil wins her 4th (!) gold medal of the games in women’s 50m freestyle!

And only 3 golds.

Jesse Grupper qualifies for the Olympics in men’s combined!

Another terrible day. Sean McColl fails to podium (and grab the Olympic quota on offer), Kelly Fitzsimmons was in a great position herself to grab one in women’s modern pentathlon but imploded during the laser run, Keven Beauséjour lost his quarterfinal bout in men’s 80kg to a random Argentinian boxer (certainly could’ve medaled with his draw), also managing to go 5-3 in badminton matches (we’re easily the best nation in Pan America, although you could make a case for US) At least we grabbed a team dressage quota in equestrian

Unfortunately, Sean Bailey and Jesse Grupper are stronger lead climbers. But I haven’t seen the course yet, it could be easy.

Caeli McKay/Kate Miller win silver in women’s 10m synchronized platform diving!

Men’s Quotas Duilio Carrillo Andres Torres Marcos Antonio Rojas Jiminez Franco Serrano Andrez Fernandez

Canada’s dressage team in equestrian qualifies for Paris through the Pan Am Games!
