At the 3x3 World Cup, Canada defeated 22-13 and will play in the quarterfinals later today.

I think Wog did well enough to be selected for the final. Nicol won't do much better (and is probably not mentally prepared to race), but they could slip in Angus if she showed improvement in training during the week though if she did, they probably would have tested her out in the heats. Canada really needs to improve their breaststroke swimmers for both the men's and women's, our medley relays suffer a great deal. The don't even have to be threatening for an individual medal. A woman who can consistently dip under 1:07 would make Canada a gold medal contender in the relay.

Do either country have any connections to the British Empire?

Also the women's water polo team will face the Netherlands in the cross-over match. Meanwhile one of France or New Zealand will go to the quarters because of the way the pools were constructed.

I can see them going either way with Wog or Angus. If Angus can show that she's capable of repeating her performance from the Canadian Trials then they should go with her. Perhaps they'll give Angus the spot in the heats and replace her if she fails to go sub 1:08.

I wonder if that means South Africa will take the African quota at the Olympics again because they finished 12th.

Yeah remember when sports had to show that their event had worldwide appeal before it got included in the Olympics?

Freestyle skiing and snowboarding need to be restructured together (and add PSG to alpine)

I guess you saw my message before I fixed it

I guess the gamble paid off. That's nine medals in the pool, one more than 2019 with the women's 400IM and the medley relay tomorrow.

I imagine they forgot about mixed team aerials? We literally only had 6 nations compete

I was hoping for at least one medal today from him. Hopefully he still has something for the relay.

Not getting fourth place? That requires a disciplinary action in Canada

This was expected. I wouldn't be surprised if the IOC ran it again in 2028 despite threatening to remove it altogether.

The doctor who approved her to compete should be banned...

I guess they are going all-in. Definitely a chance for a medal assuming Liendo can handle the races

I guess they could compete on an ice rink

If I were the coach I probably won't. Like will Liendo be much faster than Gaziev/Acevedo after two races? Throw in the fact that he might be completely gassed and flop a potential medal chance and it would be too risky.

No, ranking points are awarded in events beginning in November.

Canada finished third in its group and will play in the round of 16. The good news is that the bottom half of the bracket seems to be a bit weaker overall, but the bad news is Mexico will be in our half.

It's been a combination of Australia (and to a lesser extent Great Britain) focusing on the Commonwealth Games, Russia's ban and the general downward trend of China that has allowed the United States to dominate these championships.

We ended up losing to Spain, but defeating the Netherlands to finish second in the group. Our round of 16 opponent will be against .

6th for McKee

Wog got fourth in the women's 200m breast. Wasn't expecting a medal from her, but still tough to see nonetheless

Is Liendo really going to attempt to race both the men's 100m fly and 50m free final over a ~1 hour period tomorrow? He finished third in both races in the semis.
