Top half - - Bottom half - -

Saved 3 match points in the 3rd...1-2

Poland chose better 2 days ago. Another Olympic disappointment as World Champions incoming.

Japan not just winning but dominating so far

Another 4th

Unreal Olympics by South Korea, they are converting 90% of their chances.

Easy win for Serbia - the only team there is no way Italy will beat.

And goodbye to 's 4x100.

Oh shit!

Thanks to the 3-way tiebreking rules, France and Greece can both advance (at the expense of Italy) if Greece beats France by 8 or more goals. Yes, France would be eliminated if they lose by 1 to 6 goals but not if they lose by 8 or more so for them it's better to lose heavily.. 3-3 at ht...maybe some hope for us. And it ends 4-11...France tried in every way to let Greece score in the last quarter 🤣 but not enough

As always, shooters are simply ordered by average score until everyone finishes. Which is the only logical way to order them.

And the reward will probably be a tough quarter against Serbia/USA/China.

I 22,16 per il secondo posto quest'anno li faceva anche in ciabatte...un disastro inaudito e incomprensibile.

It's possible, I don't know enough about this. Regarding today, experts seems to think that Wilson committed a very very bad mistake (and Kantor followed her) - an Italian sailing website wrote that (Wilson) "goes so fast that she does not need to think" and completely missed the correct line.

4 bronze and 14 wooden (or chocolate, or whatever you call it) medals... an impressive 22% success rate.

The men were all close in the standings so it's not comparable to the women's event. But I checked and Wilson suffered the same fate in the 2024 and 2023 WCh after clearly winning the series...so maybe it's her own limit of not being able to deliver in a single race with all the pressure on her.

After sailing, another idiotic format...judokas with 40-50 kg of weight difference fighting each other.

That's an idiotic format. So probably it will be like this in every class in a few years with the series not counting anymore, a bit like in shooting.

How is this comment even allowed? Where are the admins? What kind of forum is this?

Yes. Unless Brazil lose to Egypt which is not realistic.
