  1. Ashram throws her ribbon and maybe also her gold medal away...
  2. So... what's going on? I am not that familiar with the sport but I see that Ashram never defeated the Russians before at the WChs. Are the Russians making mistakes or is something different compared to previous years, like, did the judges just change their minds about who are the best at this or has Ashram improved?
  3. Are the Russians losing this for the first time since 1996? (And it would be the first time since 1984 that not an ex-Soviet or Soviet state wins)
  4. 3/3, 2 gold and 1 bronze, thankfully these medals weren't in any danger (the 4th boat in K2 was also Hungarian).
  5. The one thing I don't understand about the new format is that this bonus round will stay in it when this is literally the most pointless round of any event at the Olympic Games.
  6. It's called "laser run", it's under UIPM like pentathlon, but I doubt IOC would accept it as a discipline at the Olympic Games. It's not like the combined event of modern pentathlon is a huge success, it's nowhere near as entertaining as biathlon.
  7. Mother of all chokes, wastes a gold like that...
  8. Dear lord, we have the bronze, somehow. That was a great last quarter, finally the girls pulled it off when it mattered, but please, the next time just be a bit more consistent because this tournament was nerve wrecking for us.
  9. And our girls have collapsed again after a 7-4 lead. Of course...
  10. The most predictable podium in men's kayak, 1. 2. 3. , Germany avoids the complete flop in Canoe Sprint in the one event where they dominate the most. Well done, boys, this is a nice 7th place from a new boat. Before the Games I thought that we won't even be in FA, so this is improvement.
  11. It's hard to say how the conditions changed everything or how much some boats got tired, but both Poland and New Zealand had a slower final than the SF while we and Belarus peaked in the final. I think in the case of the Kiwis they got tired by the end of it, after all they had 4 women's kayak athletes for 4 events while we had 6. Edit: Still, massive kudos to Carrington, 3 gold medals and a 4th place is an amazing achievement, I doubt we will ever see something like this again.
  12. I guess I am moron because I shouldn't have doubted them, that was an amazing race from the girls. Finally, at the last race Kozák was her old, unbeatable self that we remember from Rio. 6-times Olympic champion, Danuta Kozák is now the most successful female Hungarian Olympic athlete of all time, she overtook Krisztina Egerszegi.
  13. Here comes the women's K4... honestly, I just hope that we will win a medal at the very least, was really close to beating us in the SF. I have the same bad feeling that I had before the women's K1 (about Kozák) and before the women's K2. Something is just not working well with this boat and with our women's kayak in general, I think the golden years are over, but I hope that I am wrong and they can pull this win off one last time.
  14. Now this is something that rarely happens, Tarnovschi won the bronze in Rio and then was stripped of his medal due to doping, plus got a 4 year ban. He would have missed the Games if it wouldn't have been postponed, and now he's back and he literally does the same thing that he did in Rio, hopefully without any violations this time.
  15. gold in C1! Terrible Olympic Games for Europe in Canoe Sprint.
  16. It figures that after all the World Championship medals we lose the women's C2 medal when it's at the Olympic Games for the first time.
  17. Ko got a chance for the gold and she immediately crumbled.
  18. Nicely done boys, see you maybe tomorrow in the final because the storm is here,
  19. Good news for Slovakia, this might turn into Slalom Canoe by looks of it.
  20. I think you have never been this strong in women's K4 before and you have already surprised us in K2. Our first 250m was shit twice now, if you will have a huge lead in the final at the halfway point, which I am afraid of, I doubt that we can turn things around in such a short distance.
  21. Stronger SF from both and than us. I honestly think that can and maybe will win this.
  22. I hope the girls were saving their energy for the final because if not... I am starting to have some serious doubts about the gold.
