Wow. Unexpected and cruel. BWF should not inform federations that they have a quota if it is only conditional and can be taken away 20 days before. Poor Akvilė.

Appereantly Korobov also broke WR of this event 37.446. Maybe Lithuania did a mistake sending H,Žustautas instead of this youngster

Less than month before the games - any other suggestions? Personally I think small chances can be added (): - Women's weightlifting - Men's golf - Women's taekwondo

It is. We will see what will happen. Don't want to judge it too early...

Gintarė Volungevičiūtė-Scheidt (Sailing)

I really thought that will get the women's wildcard..

Skurdelis lost his first fight with result 0:3 (28:29, 28:29, 28:29)

But it is popular in Lithuania, so no need to bash it so hard

Well that water spalsh is symbol of Druskininkai city. Although I don't like it personally. Cool, you participated. Sadly you did not get picked Although the biggest amount of foreign works was received from Egypt

Yeah, but it has amber stone in it which is national "stone" of Lithuania so people tend to vote for stuff like that. The mascot fro Eurobasket in LTU "amber-man" was selected throughout public voting as well

Open voting for next year's World Cup Final logo begun: Option A Option B - Option C You can vote HERE

Lithuania in tennis.

Surprisingly Berankis did it. Lithuania will debut in Olympic tennis.

Lithuania

officially selected the team: Justinas Kinderis (Men's) Laura Asadauskaitė-Zadneprovskienė (Women's) Ieva Serapinaitė (Women's)

During Polish and Lithuanian women cycling campaign BaltiCCYcle-2016 in Rio to support Rio 2016 Olympics one of Lithuanian female cyclist was attacked, sexually abused, raped and lost her phone, documents and money... Unfortunately cyclist drop behind of the team and where alone when she was attacked.

... Current level of our ladies is simply unacceptable

All 3 quotas in men's went to Egypt with Egypt winning 4 quotas in men's event after all (of course only 2 will be able to go to Rio)

LŠPF announced earlier that the last women's quota will go for the pentathlete with the highest olympic rank, so I.Serapinaitė will be selected.
