  1. https://metro.co.uk/2024/07/25/australia-olympic-champion-threatens-podium-protest-china-doping-scandal-21300281/ Podium protests threatened.
  2. Iwan Thomas on Discovery’s coverage has just said he thinks Hodkingson can get the 800m world record. I can’t see that.
  3. Going by what others are saying GB swimmers protesting the Chinese team looks like a genuine possibility - be interesting how everyone reacts to that.
  4. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/article/2024/jul/26/chinese-olympic-swimmer-doping-testers-european-american-plot Looks like protests at the swimming are certian.
  5. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/article/2024/jul/26/chinese-olympic-swimmer-doping-testers-european-american-plot ‘Zac Stubblety-Cook, has suggested that he is considering protesting at pool-side about the presence of the Chinese competitor in Paris.’
  6. There is a fair bit of that across a few sports this games. Qualifying a spot and then not using it effectively.
  7. The chances of the IOC doing that are very slim. Unless they want 2028 cancelled.
  8. Michael Olise in the football team was born and raised in London. Yona Knight-Wisdom In the diving squad is UK born and raised and is good friends with many of our Diving squad. Adele Tracey in the athletics squad is also UK born and raised. Ann Katrin - Berger in the is the partner of lionesses Jess Carter.
  9. USA and GB swimmers seem certain to protest Chinese swimmers in interviews, press conferences and on the podium.
  10. The IOC have to prepare for the USA to not drop its investigation into WADA. It’s actually outrageous they have demanded that and threatened to cancel 2028.

  12. Sadly a pretty poor ranking round. Why do we always seem to do that recently. Looking good in qualifying and then be awful in the ranking round.
  13. I suspect GB withdrawing from competing in it due to lack of support or funds is more likely than the whole sport being axed for 2028.
  14. The BBC say 2028 could be cancelled due to the dispute between WADA and USADA.
  15. The medal will be reallocated sometime. The IOC will have to decide between USA and China at some point.
  16. I’m just reporting a story and the fact some of the press are now running with the sport shouldn’t get public funding or even be at the games.

  18. Her lottery funding has been suspended . https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/29440333/charlotte-dujardin-funding-video-olympic-horse/
