  1. Kentucky Three-Day Event is a go, and it will be by far the biggest eventing competition to be staged since 2019. Entries are in record numbers, and for this year a side CCI4*-S event has been introduced. Drawn order for the CCI5*-L Drawn order for the CCI4*-S
  2. Astier Nicolas will be hard-pressed to even get selected this time.
  3. Apparently the EU will stop ordering AstraZeneca and J&J?
  4. Well, Sri Lanka should finally qualify someone this month, once the CAS decision regarding Mathilda Karlsson comes through.
  5. Wait, why not New Zealand? Technically, they are on a different continent than Australia.
  6. Too bad the broadcaster did not show Chilean celebration, but rather focused on some irrelevant replays. Who on earth shows replays literally as soon as the final whistle blows??
  7. Well, it depends on the format used. If the format is based around the team rotation (relay, elimination, KO tournament), then yes, exchanges/eliminations would happen during sessions themselves. It could make things more difficult to follow. So, depending on the format, it could be more ideal to have 9 - 9 (or 10) - 9 (or 10) - 9 juries per session.
  8. Well, they sent a full team here and seem to have a presence in table tennis in general. Just sending a Tripartite request should be enough, as they are hardly active in any other Tripartite sport (except maybe boxing, but not to an extent of sending full teams to qualifiers).
  9. This poll is just too wrong. Not because the Olympics can't get cancelled, but because they can't get potponed again. IOC confirmed that multiple times. They can't mess up the entire sport calendar for another year. So, most of all, it would be interesting know how would those postponement voters split.
  10. STOP THE COUNT! Award As we step into the TISC week, with the Grand Final to be held in Poland on Saturday, April 17th, it is time to complete our tour of the TISC Special Awards. There are three different Special Awards in total. The J'en Suis La Award and the Passionfruit Award have been introduced in 2018 as part of the 10th edition Jubilee legacy, while the newly formed STOP THE COUNT! Award got first celebrated in the Netherlands last year. While nobody really aims (or wants) to claim these awards, they do serve their purpose within the TISC festivities, if nothing else to remind us all of the exciting Grand Final journeys that the various award recipients have experienced. Today, we will revisit the STOP THE COUNT! Award... The STOP THE COUNT! Award is quite simply reserved for the last non-winning leader of a given contest. In an unlikely scenario where the eventual winner leads from start to finish, the award will be left unclaimed. The only STOP THE COUNT! Award presented so far was received by Canada at the 2020 Open. Their entry Rude (by MAGIC!) wished the Grand Final had stopped after the Vote #14, as it was the last time they were able to hold Serbia at bay... STOP THE COUNT! Award - Hall of Fame 2020 Open - Canada MAGIC! - Rude Last lead: 40.0% votes in (14/35) Final rank: 2nd Join us for this Saturday's Grand Final, as we embark on a journey to find out who will be the newest TISC Special Awards recipients.
  11. Our team had quite a photo-shoot with their fancy new uniforms. I like it. Record percentage of color red.
  12. European competitions are finally restarting. @Dolby This weekend, Fouaad Mirza will be gunning for the CCI4*-S requirement aboard Dajara in Strzegom.
  13. Surely Guyana already submitted their Tripartite request...? For me, they are the frontrunners in table tennis.
  14. Nice video, though they should have left that last part out. There is nothing commendable in uniting teams mid-tournament.
  15. What's up with the forum today? It's slow, as if it tested COVID positive.
  16. Really? It seems to me that general tone is pessimistic (barring India and Brazil ). If all these nations stand to lose medals, one wonders who will gain them.
  17. Bella Rose has only three seasons behind her though (2014, 2018, 2019). There was an injury that took a long time to heal, and she was consistently improving upon her comeback, between 2018 and 2019. By the time Rio arrived, Valegro had five consecutive championships seasons behind him (and was showing signs of mileage at Deodoro).
  18. TISC week is here... I'm sitting in office, when suddenly Emotions start playing on the radio... Okay, who is behind this?
  19. Where is the angle here? Media here consistently reports both these pieces of information. Every single day.
  20. Funny how nobody was mentioning Valegro's age and mileage before Rio... This all seems like the usual dirty tactics (as presented by British Dressage) of trying to influence the judges through media.
  21. Oh well, the extra year has been highly beneficial for the Dutch dressage. Between team dressage, team & individual jumping, I think you should count on at least one medal in equestrian.
  22. It depends on the sport too I guess. Looking at equestrian events for example, entries seemed quite organized by 1988/1992.
