México en los Juegos Olímpicos 2024
Braulio replied to mrv86's topic in Aztecas Olímpicos's Rumbo a París 2024
Hola y saludos a todos He puesto en mi voto a la apuesta más 'segura' con Osmar, le veo con medalla (ojalá con 2) creo que en individual si continua con la misma forma que ha mostrado desde hace meses, no debería quedar fuera del podium, plata o bronce y si alguna falla de chinos ocurre y el sale impecable podría ser Oro, no es descabellado. En sincronizado va a depender mucho de qué tan consistente sea Celaya, que a su favor tiene la experiencia de Tokio pero que sabemos es muy irregular, la presión olímpica no debería pesarle mucho, pero la 'obligación' de hacerlo bien por él y por Osmar le puede jugar en contra. Si, tengo expectativas altas a que clavados sea el deporte con más medallas para la delegación en Paris, si todo se combina a favor, podría ser una cosecha como en Londres, tres medallas. No sabía eso que comentas @PanchoBque Sereda no va a competir en sincronizados??? vaya! eso abriría muchísimo la opción de podium de los nuestros, personalmente me gustaría mucho una medalla en sincronizados 10m y más si se supera a los britanicos, ojalá, ojalá Kevin el dia de la final tenga un dia bueno. Ale Orozco y Gaby Agundez van a también necesitar estar excelsas en la final, el podium para mi luce bastante complicado con las británicas y especialmente las norcoreanas que nadie tenía en cuenta y que en Doha aparecieron con un nivel casi a la altura de las chinas, las veo cuarto o quinto sitio a las nuestras. Coincido en que siempre cae una medalla inesperada cuando las cosas lucen negras para la delegación, creo que esa medalla podría venir por ahi de la mano de un Marco Verde en boxeo, de uno de los mexicoamericanos en lucha, incluso hasta de la vela con la chica que ha estado teniendo muy buenos resultados. Vamos, tampoco es descabellado pensar en la posibilidad de una medalla sorprendente en la natación artística en Grupos, dado el panorama ya tan abierto e impredecible de esta disciplina a día de hoy. Mis cuentas me dicen que Mexico podría tener una cosecha de 4 a 6 medallas, ningún oro, un par de platas y 4 bronces Posteriormente escribiré mis opiniones de otros deportes -

at Mexican Nationals, Paola Moran ran 50.58 to make the Olympic Standard Time in the 400 Metres -
Diving Qualification to Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024
Braulio replied to Totallympics's topic in Diving
In the end it looks like Mexico did not have the realocated quota -
and another blow for the USA Women's gymnastics team Shilese Jones injured her already injured knee and only performed Uneven Bars Though not out of the Games yet but her chances of making the Olympic Team are now in big danger unless USA gymnastics grants her a specialist spot or if the injury is not that serious and gets a spot on the team proven her results all these previous years. Chances for her are 50/50

16 year old Quincy Willson will be up for nomination for the 4x400m squad for Paris even the Mixed 4x400m Pool, wonder if the USATF will select him despite not having international experience at all. He finished sixth in the final and all three rounds under 45 seconds. Michael Norman second in the 400m final, I can see the guy again having the olympic pressure hitting him, hopefully wont be a Tokyo re-visit but I didnt see him as confident like in 2022 when he finally delivered.

Now that she finally understood Mary Moora's tactic/stategy, Keely is the overwhelming favourite for the Olympic gold

Diving Qualification to Summer Olympic Games Paris 2024
Braulio replied to Totallympics's topic in Diving
I hope the NOC takes the quota and manages to send somebody through an improvised qualifier nationaly, my logic tells me that if we, casual fans, had the information about a posible realocation in the 3m springboard for the women, they would be also aware and prepared just in case, in the end is their job! Though with our sporting governing bodies you'll never know! Paola Pineda made it to the semis at worlds so I guess she could be the natural option, still, I hope our divers kept training and were also aware about a last chance if a reallocation quota scenario happened in extremis Anyway, just for the experience that will give to any of the upcoming young ones, Mexico should take the quota and send whoever is ready -
Mexico Medal Chances in Taekwondo: 1 Diving: 3 Archery: 2 Athletics: 1 Modern pentathlon: 1 There is always an unexpected medal for Mexico when things look the worst, It could be coming from artistic gymnastics, boxing, track cyling. Optimistic scenario: 5 to 7 medals, 1 gold Most likely: 4 medals like in Tokyo, no golds but hopefully not only bronze.

Top 6 for the young mexican squad, not bad at all -
Name the 5 Olympic moments most remembered in your Country
Braulio replied to rafalgorka's topic in Totallympics Mixed Zone
My moments since I began watching the Olympics, for Mexico, not that we win a lot of medals but at least since Sydney the haul is more 'decent' than before that edition. - Mexican Soccer Team in London taking the gold unexpectedly, first and probably most important achievement for this sport like ever - Soraya Jimenez weightlifting gold medal in Sydney, first for a mexican woman ever - Maria Espinoza and Guillermo Perez taking gold medals in taekwondo at Beijing 2008 - Aida Roman & Mariana Avitia Silver & Bronze in Women's Archery in London 2012, first time 2 mexican women stood on the same podium - And maybe an infamous moment, Sydney 2000 Men's 20 km walk, Mexico wining gold and bronze, Bernardo Segura wining, celebrating, but getting DQ and notified while he was having a call on national tv covering the games with the then selected as Mexico's next president -
Great result for the new pairing in the men's 3m synchro, now Osmar Olvera with Juan Celaya who placed 4th in Tokyo at this event. But now a big controversy is coming about the situation of who will be competing in Paris with Osmar? the organising body that rules aquatic sports in Mexico already announced that Osmar & Rodrigo Diego were the selected divers for the Olympics in the synchro event, BUT given Rodrigo slowly but steady going downhill with bad competitions and a bit of a mental struggle state in the last months, now they decided to change and give a try with Juan Celaya. This pairing with Celaya makes their debut and what a result, a big 420 points total and lots of improvement in the synchronised part of course. What will happen? kick out Rodrigo? but they already selected him, now how they tell him sorry but no, we take back. Rodrigo could challenge this of course but in al fairness if he is struggling he could sacrifice his spot and let Celaya take the better opportunity. I dont want a scandal with this situation to affect mexican aspirations on this event at Paris, for me the 3m synchro is the biggest chance to get a medal among with Osmar individually wining at least the bronze.

I thought that this time no mexican fencer would be at the Games but thanks to Gibran Zea we will have representation.

I hope Nasar wins the Gold and the doper Lopez doesn't make to the podium in Paris

Shooting CAT Rifle & Pistol American Championships 2024
Braulio replied to Totallympics's topic in Shooting
I hope Mexico can get two quotas -
Shooting CAT Shotgun American Championships 2024
Braulio replied to Totallympics's topic in Shooting
Two posibilities for getting it but still Guatemala takes the quota Don't know what to say -
And another Bronze Medal for Mexico, Gabriela Agundez and Alejandra Orozco took bronze in the 10m Synchro. They keep the good results, no lower than 4th place at major competitions. Though I will keep an eye out for the North Koreans in Paris who will be a threat for a medal given the spectacular show they gave in Doha wining silver and the olympic quota with dives almost chinese caliber.
-
No, it is official. Only the Men 3m individual will be decided at the 'Olympic trial' later I think in June I didn't know about a posible reallocated quota for the women's 3m event.

For the reputation yes, GBR have Jack Laugher who has all the medals to show, but the other guy is not that consistent and Laugher is now not that consistent as before. Yes, Mexico has the weak link with Rodrigo Diego, but if you put the Degree of dificulty program mexican and brits have the same start value In Doha Mexico was 4th just shy of a silver medal and in front of the brits, and here with clear errors from Diego they were 1 point behind GBR Maybe Mexico is not the front runner behind China but is not that far from GBR and like I said IF (and is a big IF) Rodrigo has the competition of his life I can give the edge for the mexican pair in Paris. Though everything can happen! let's remember who won silver and bronze in Doha with a less difficult program: Italy and SPAIN!! @mrv86 I think Rodrigo and Kevin should focus only in the synchro events, right now they don't have any chance of a medal, the best scenario with them is an olympic final. But remember the Mexican diving team for Paris is already decided in all events but the Men 3m Individual where Diego, Celaya, Ocampo will fight for that spot.
-
Mexico Well we have Alan Cleland qualified, hoping for a second surfer at this Games was maybe too much right now
-
Rodrigo Diego execution once again costs Mexico a better placement, it is very disappointing that he has the quality and talent but still lacks confidence and that killer instinct that Osmar shows. Hoping he somehow finds that consistency and mental strength in Paris, with a consistent and clean, not even perfect, competition Mexico is maybe the Silver medal favourite at the Games in 3m Synchro.

Diving at the Aquatics WA World Championships 2024
Braulio replied to Totallympics's topic in Diving
If only Gaby Agundez didn't missed her individual dive, that cost the gold medal Anyway good start for the team, this and the 5th place in the women's 1m springboard will give momentum for the rest of the competition and boost chances of getting all the quotas still needed to qualify a full team to Paris -
Mexico with 41 Golds and just two away of surpassing the All time best gold medal haul including home Games that is 42 That will come once Pelote Basque gives the gold medal rain on saturday/sunday
