Following story of Lithuanian Police investigating doping in Lithuanian Weightlifting Federation, Lithuanian Anti-Doping Agency provided information that some of doping might had been supplied from Lithuanian Cycling Federation associates. Yesterday Criminal Centre of Klaipėda District pressed charged on two cycling coaches for possessing doping substances and supplying it to others. Antanas Jakimavičius and Solveiga Baleišytė - both are now in jail. Both of them was working with national team members of Track Cycling. (although both stripped from their coaching licenses at the moment) training Olivija Baleišytė (World Junior Record holder and daughter of Solveiga), Kristina Kazlauskaitė, Lithuanian Junior Girls National team. Lithuanian Cycling Federation announced that they are working closely with WADA and cyclists who worked with these coaches had to do doping test and are under the radar during investigation. Lithuanian Olympic Committee condemned recent situation and expressed their support for investigations.

and is out for the first time and still keeping a record of qualifying every time and qualified for the 8th time in a row

is out for the first time ever. and is out for only the second time in history 5th consecutive qualification to the finals, best out of all qualified countries tonight. qualified for the second time ever. in the final after 4 years break. and fails to qualify for the 4th time in the row fails to qualify for the 6th time in the row

FINALLY!!! Wonderful day for our sport. It was so obvious - almost every single lifter that was trained by him wa coughed using doping. 5 cases just last year! In the article you can also see official video from Klaipėda District Organised Criminal Activity Search Authority Youtube page with all of the substances that was. Creepy how much of different kind of doping he had. Man right now is in jail and likely to get 4 years behind the bars according to Lithuania's law. Also Lithuanian Weightlifting Federation will have to face the law as well.

is the first to qualify.

YAY!!!! Maybe now something will be done with national coach in Lithuanian Weightlifting Federation who's son tested positive twice and who was also a cough for every single weightlifter that was sanctioned in Lithuania... It's the most corrupted federation in Lithuania's history.

Currently it doesn't seem that anyone wants to give up a spot in women's halfpipe which is a tragedy since first country for rellocation is

So the marathon of confirming the quotas started. Sill a long way to go, but we already have some rejections: Ski Cross: rejected one female spot. It should go to Halfpipe: rejected one male spot. It should go to

Lithuanian team has been confirmed: Modestas Vaičiulis Mantas Strolia Marija Kaznačenko

Sereikaitė was not that far away from qualification in any of the distances, but unfortunately fell and injured her back... Very unsuccessfully season for her, way outside her form, yet it was Olympic qualification season and its over for her with no Olympics

the most boring and ugliest one so far...

And a surprise - Lina Batulevičiūtė wins Champion of Champions Silver to Alice Sotero and Elodie Clouvel in third.

Robert Scheidt and Gintarė Scheidt officialy announced about their retirement from competitive sailing on social media.

4th twice... So annoying.

Good start by pair in ice dance, but I guess we will have to let go the Olympic quota again as there won't be a chance for A.Reed to gain Lithuanian citizenship, especially after last Tobias situation...

Valdas Adamkus - as national record holder of 100m sprint and as the President of Lithuania (1998-2009)

Lithuanian National Team - winners of EuroBasket 1937

I agree that top 4-6 athletes should always be in Olympics regardless of nation, but dismiss those "Chinese or Kazakh athletes that nobody cares for" (like somebody mentioned here before) and it's no longer the Olympics for me. Let's take such an undeveloped sport as Canoeing slalom and remove those asian/african/small-oceanian quotas and you are left just with a smaller part of Europe + US/CAN/AUS. Is this really an event that deserves to be kept in Olympics then? NO! And if you disagree - then why just stop with canoeing slalom? Let's remove all of the continental quotas from basketball and let's have 4 teams from USA, 2 from Spain, 2 from Serbia, 2 from Lithuania and 2 from Argentina, because let's be real - who cares if Africa or Asia sends a team to basketball tournament... And let's have 60 out of 64 archers from South Korea, instead on wasting archery quotas on Slovakia or Finland... And my favourite Table tennis - 100% Chinese NOC, because let' be realistic - all top 180 players in China will be way stronger than any other table tennis player around the world. I understand that I'm overreacting here, I'm just not a fan of isolating poor countries from opportunity to participate at the Olympics.

I know, right! I mean you have to respect Susan Nattrass as she achieved so much in her shooting career - but as a commentator she just a bit annoying because she interested more in the colour of glasses that shooters are wearing rather than competition itself.

Oh come on! They completely ruined the broadcast - no footage of target itself.... At least that red/green emoji is cute....
