Between Rojas, Barshim and Tamberi, I don't know who has the most "over the top" reaction. Incredible Triple Jump & High Jump competitions.

Well, congrats to the team !

After 6 days, the results are pretty disappointing for because many expected medals were not won : VTT H & F, Triathlon H, Basketball 3x3 F, canoeing slalom, some individuals in fencing, Wiet-Henin in taekwondo... And thanks Judo ! Above all, I feel like we didn't get any "surprising" medals, except maybe Canonne in Epée (but we were expected one of the other fencers to win it anyway). I mostly sad for our Shooting Federation that put a lot of effort these last years to improve in every disciplines, and the results are frustrating with 5 finalists but 0 podiums. Team sports are not looking good either (except for Basketball H or Rugby F). Moreover, as expected, Tennis and Swimming are two of the sports we had good results the last decade, but for these olympics, it's... well. It's the void. The federation leaders are incompetent anyway. I hope it will cause an electroshock for Paris 2024 (and I hope it will be the same for athletics or gymnastics). So yeah, right now, not a good sign for Paris 2024. But again, it was expected, as there is almost no emulation nor budget increases to improve athlete performance. I'm complaining, but 11 medals are still good news compared to many other countries, and I congratulate every french athletes of the team who are giving their best.

Well, another big disappointment for us. ? I really wanted at least a medal for Pauline Ferrand-Prevost, because she had been through SO much these last years ! Congrats to team Swiss!

For , maybe... - Our flag bearer Clarisse Agbegnenou, -63 kg in Judo, 5-times world champion. - Mixed relay in Triathlon - I don't really know the sport, and I understand that the team's results lately weren't the best, but we are twice world champions in a row. - Charline Picon, former olympic champion for RS:X. I read on this forum that there are 3 girls who are above the field, and Charline is one of them ! An honorable mention for our 3x3 women team in basketball.

Congrats !

When is the first realistic medal chance of the Games for your nation? When do you think your nation will get their first medal and in which event? I will "steal" @dcro reply form .. Optimistic - Day 1, has some serious opportunities : Shirine Boukli in Judo -48kg, Oceane Muller in Shooting, and both our fencers in Epée and Sabre Individuals. Realistic - Day 2, with Amandine Buchard in Judo -52kg, and once again in both Fencing Individuals. Pessimistic - Well, let's say Day 4 and the Women's Cross-Country.

in semi, thanks Thomas Chirault.

What a stressfull game.. And so many miss !! But yay for the ticket !

This championships being so close to the Olympics, it seems that teams are sending a B-squad, minus Poland ? France sends many ""young"" athletes to introduce them to senior championships. Sad that Ukrainians had to forfeit. Anyways, very excited to follow the championships!

Kaisa Mäkäräinen's retirement saddens me even more than the retirement of Martin Fourcade. Two wonderful champions who are gone.

Very happy (and surprised) for Susan Dunklee and Lucie Charvátová ! I hope that the latter will continue her good results for the end of the year and in future years.

Kaisa !!

Happy New *Olympic* Year to all !!

Yeah, very happy for Charvatova ! It's nice to see her at the flowers ceremony. Only one miss ! I did not believe my eyes when I saw her shoot.

Go Häcki !!

We stole the french girl's energy to give everything to the men.

It's urban and new.

Yeah for sure ! But the session taking place in the hotel seems to be problematic (+ the fact that our championships are a disaster, minus the two medals). That seems to create a mini-crisis too, because one of the doctor from the french staff left and went back to France.

Typical France Televisions. Every athlete can get a medal with them. But Robert Michon is a lovely lady, she does a lot for athletics / throwing in France.

Apparently, at the beginning of the week, a hypnotist went to the French hotel, and did an hypnosis session to some athletes, without the leaders of the federation knowing. lmao I can't with our current team or federation.. And now Amdouni with this case of doping.

All week, Diniz was groaning against the conditions. I think he didn't even want to compete here in Doha. He's one of the commentator for the television now. I'm really afraid for next year too.

Can I say that the best result for France for the moment is a 6th place ? French commentators are desperate. As soon as a french athlete appears, he/she is "a new hope". lmao Mayer please save us !!!

Vasquez A new Salazar-boy who wins... lmao.

Mahuchikh !!
