WORLD RECORD ALERT

There's a video on Youtube with a compilation of numerous commentaries on Ledecka's gold

Wouldn't that mean all the tennis players who play at Wimbledon would not be able to compete in Tokyo? and all the golfers from the British Open?

Nearly a 100 years ago but the final 100 metres of this race is still stunning

So the first decade AD only lasted 9 years?

Judging on what's been happening in British politics this year, may I wish you all a happy 1851 for next year...

Norah Jeruto was listed as representing Kazakhstan in a road race in Italy today. I believe she has qualifying times for the 3000m SC and 5000m from 2019 back from when she Kenyan.

Is there a possibility some countries will choose a sprinter? Or is the course just too tough?

Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it. And if you don't then have a good day anyway

Correction 11.00 Cycling-Men's road race: 1. Greg Van Avermaet NED 2. Peter Sagan CZE 3. Dan Martin GBR

You noticed my deliberate mistake. The first time I predict a Czech medal I will credit it to Slovakia....

Interesting that, when most of the Russians from the 2014 Olympics were cleared, nobody mentioned that the Austrian who judged the case had been recorded as supporting the Russian invasion of Crimea and saying it was justified under international law.

Would be a huge risk for China to let him compete in Tokyo. If it goes back to CAS and the same verdict is reached again, he almost certainly loses any medal he wins in Tokyo and China will look very foolish

The Swiss Tribunal can only rule on whether the case was decided within the rules of Swiss law. They can't decide on the evidence. So I guess they didn't like that the interpreters from Chinese to English were fairly useless

My bet is that it will go back to CAS and he'll be found guilty again.

I realized my mistake 10 seconds before I read your reply

Marathon Project Arizona Men Ben Preisner 2:10:17 Emmanuel Roudolff 2:11.20 Women Natasha Wodak 2:26:19 Andrea Ramirez 2:26:34 Ursula Sanchez 2:29:11 There's also a lot of Americans qualified but their team for Tokyo was picked a long time ago

Tatyana Kashirina of Russia will miss Tokyo. She's been suspended for doping and will not be able to compete in the final qualifying period.

Weightlifting is almost impossible to predict this time because of the probability that whole countries will be banned from Tokyo

Men's Decathlon: Brisbane Ash Maloney (8492) Cedric Dubler (8367)

What happens if somebody gets disqualified? If one of the four gets DQed do the team get thrown out? Do they only count the times of the quickest man and quickest woman? Do they have penalty pit stops instead of disqualifications? H
