Makes sense. I remember her press conference where she openly admitted that she received a list of prohibited substances in December but didn't check it. Meaning that obviously she used it after January 1st.

Meanwhile...

Looks like United Arab Emirates could repeat their infamous quota in women's weightlifting from London 2012! They have again entered two women in +75 whose entries are barely over 100kg. But, due to the lack of entries in that weight even last and second to last position could bring them the quota. Such a disgrace. Back in 2012 they qualified in the same way. Their weightlifter at the Olympics competed in -75kg division and lifted a "grand" total of 113kg. To put that into perspective, last placed athlete in women's -48 (from Madagascar) lifted 22 kilos more...

Cape Verde has already tied their record team size at the Olympics (3 athletes). Considering that athletics wild cards are yet to be awarded, there is every chance that they will surpass it. They might even double their record.

It is. Also Kazakhstan will make their debut in trampoline.

Yay, we have the first tripartite quotas! Well done

This is really excellent news for Ghana and Cape Verde. Especially who now has 2 athletes qualified!

Yes, but only a bit.

Well, possibly the best of the proposed logos won. Retro look makes it bearable actually for me.

Women's 100m Brenessa Thompson - 11.31

Also Singapore in rowing. Also Nigeria in rowing, which we missed earlier.

Yes. And it's he actually, not she.

I like the name of Indonesian athlete that qualified today. Memo Memo

Matija Kvasina impressively wins Tour of Croatia. That might get him selected for Rio.

Bahrain in wrestling.

Hopefully you are right about this!

I don't really follow basketball. They are threatening to kick out nations from Olympics/European championships because of some stupid club competition?

Well, that's the story of our qualifications... Pretty much only athletes that "must qualify" manage to qualify. Those that are on the "edge" very rarely succeed.

Or Kazakhstan/Thailand wins K1 simply. China is quite a favourite in C2

Yes, I use that to look if a country is going to make a debut in some sport.

Snježena Pejčić had no competition today in 3x50 World Record of 594 in qualifications (2nd place had 589) 458 in final (2nd place had 455)
