First time SVK experienced the newest WA innovations consequences as our team was apparently a couple of minutes ago contacted by the organizers with the request to not allow Gajanová to leave Budapest as she is first reserve and they do not want to have empty lanes in the semifinals in case someone DNS for some reason... so despite the chance for her to start in the semifinals is as big as me being the next pope, she have to stay now in the hostel in Budapest and hope in vain watching local TV

Barber in trouble in the javelin throw. Only 6th in Group A so far after 3 throws

ES give big buildup to  800m runner - comes last in her heat.

At 41 years old 

Kajanová gets the chance to sit on a sofa & watch the racing like a fan, but with free bottles of ice water!

Notable results from Day 4:
 
Michelle Harrison advances to the 100m hurdle semifinals qualifying as one of the fastest non-automatic qualifiers.
 
Marco Arop easily into the 800m semis
 
Savannah Sutherland finishes sixth in her semifinal with a time of 54.99, just 0.14 off the olympic standard.
 
Jean-Simon Desgagnes finishes the steeplechase in 8th. A phenomenal result for him. His time of 8:15.58 is just 0.58 off the olympic standard.

got men's 25m pistol quotas

Unused host and tripartite quotas, and declined quotas will be reallocated via the rankings. Declined continental quotas will be kept within the continent if possible

ISSF changed the rules again.

Good thing we have shotgun to make it appear China doesn't completely dominate the sport.

the fact that you find that even funny.....

this list is surely not final but based on my experience, we will have some changes but not too much. probably 1 or 2 changes in each weight. and some countries entered two wrestlers in each weight (only 1 will wrestle obviously)
 
 
I follow some of the favorite teams (Iran, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Georgia) and I know this is their final list. JPN and USA entered two in each weight but I already know their final list.
 
and of course late injuries are always possible. we just had to make a change in the freestyle team today.

2023 World Championship entries in Greco-Roman
 
Russia (AIN) is entering a very weird squad! I don't even know half of these guys.  I wonder if their better guys are banned for supporting Putin (or something like that) or they simply decided to send a bunch of nobodies ? they still have Kabaloev, Semenov and Sargsian though.

not sure any other available European TV network is broadcasting this event for free  (you can try  Teledeporte, RTE or the  TV...google will help you)

Yeah its behind paywall but I think Olympics.com will be showing the semis and the final
