  1. 5:2 now... I think the Dutch are out if they lose. After all, they conceived 5 runs from GB...
  2. And now intentional walk... Bases loaded, two outs, possibly last big chance for the Dutch.
  3. Dutch are again in big trouble. Now I am starting to wonder what happens if all finish the tournament with 2-1 record.
  4. Great triple for the Dutch, and now they have a go-ahead run on 1st base.
  5. Men's 20 km will be held from 6 to 7:30 AM, way ahead of swimming. I guess many corporate lawyers will watch that before going to work in downtown Tokyo.
  6. To be fair, swimming has morning finals, so nothing important will cross.
  7. Short preview for dressage. https://dressage-news.com/2019/07/24/pan-american-games-dressage-begins-in-3-days-usa-looking-for-6th-straight-gold-canada-brazil-mexico-seeking-ticket-to-tokyo-olympics/
  8. Olympic channel will broadcast Rugby, Artistic skating, Beach volleybal and the Opening ceremony tomorrow.
  9. Actually, nations are allowed to exchange only one quota, so Slovakia will have to enter two athletes in either men's or women's trap.
  10. It's no sarcasm. If Algeria stays high in the rankings, then Burkina Faso gets to go to Tokyo.
  11. Lol, no. IOC is not giving prize money period. Definitely not only to the US athletes. That's your NOC.
  12. Reguigi https://www.procyclingstats.com/race/challenge-du-prince/2019/result
  13. But the point is that Olympics do not have prize money in a traditional sense. Awards by NOCs are bonuses rather than prize money.
  14. But they do speak it (it's the third most common language in SA with 7 million native speakers according to Wiki). And I do know of some SA athletes whose mother tongue is Afrikaans.
  15. There are probably English whites and others too? Afrikaners are rather specific minority of Dutch descendants who have Afrikaans as their first language (a funny version of Dutch, according to @heywoodu).
  16. Afrikaners are the Dutch South Africans (not specifically white).
