Well for 2020 it was not the IOC's decision, rather it was Tokyo 2020. Japan has no tradition in the sport and of course rejected it. However, with 24/28 going to 'better' squash nations, I would be shocked if we didn't see the sport then.

And retired players like Jarome Iginla and Shane Doan would be likely as well (granted they do not get NHL contracts).

Exactly, her time in the butterfly final was faster here than in Rio... so its not like she is regressing.

Only 10 teams for the 4x200 relay tomorrow (all in one heat), why can't they all just swim in the final?

Most stupidest relay format ever. What a complete and utter joke of an event.

Wow Poland

Wow Canada in the mixed relay with a supposed B team

who cares.

Its good to see Brazil doing well here, after flopping in Rio

Also Canada's first gold since 2007! Wow.

Congrats Masse Canada's first world record since Annamay Pierce in the 200 breast (2009)

At least they are much better than Algeria

Well Canada did beat Hungary earlier this year...

Omg the nightmare for Canada continues ...

I am sorry but this is annoying.

He got 800 points in the sprint race. He needs to drop that by a further 500 points and has to do that 5 times. It doesn't look good

Oleksiak is not going to win a medal here. She does not look like she is in form.

Graphics problems everywhere.

The graphics are showing the Italian swimmer as a Canadian and off course the announcer thinks he is Canadian lol

After two days of swimming finals at the Commonwealth Youth Games we have a lot of exotic nations winning medals such as And Singapore with 4 gold medals!
