Standings after cross-country: 90.40 114.10 122.70 158.20 162.70 188.60 1093.90 2058.60 This disaster for Sweden will likely balance out the season's standings between the nations that are seeking Olympic qualification.

Marinić made the final. Touched a few gates, but it was a final nevertheless!

So much for South Africa not caring.

Here's a bit of news you don't hear every day. IOC member HRH Princess Haya is seeking asylum in Germany after running away from her husband in Dubai. Her husband, Sheikh Mohammed, 69, is vice-president and prime minister of the United Arab Emirates, as well as leader of the Emirate of Dubai. He has six wives and 23 children.

To be fair, she probably learned the tactics from Henry.

Standings after dressage: 81.60 82.40 93.70 95.80 97.30 105.20 105.20 106.10

Yes, the penalties from round one are carried through.

Just in case you are not familiar with the situation. Ukraine is being represented here by a bunch of foreigners that have nothing to do with Ukraine (and have probably never even been in Ukraine). Sure, that happens in all sports these days, but these German/Dutch professionals were brought to Ukraine by a criminal who a couple of years ago ended up in jail for corruption and money laundering and what not. And now they will be given an Olympic quota. Unbelieveable. Not that Czech Republic and Hungary deserved it in any way going by their today's performance...

Clear with 2 time for the German. Oh, screw this. Seriously.

Yes.

There will be two rounds of jumping.

Fall for Kirchhoff! (surely you guessed he was Ukrainian by that name?)

Actually, there is no 1000 penalties in show jumping, just elimination. Greece is not allowed to compete anymore.

Ugh. Looks like Ukraine is the best standing team. What a mood killer.

Dear Lord, this Greek team is definitely out of place here. They are already eliminated.

Double refusal at water for Augier. This competition will be a rollercoaster (unless Ukraine trolls dominate).

It's starting now.

This is some other competition, actual C1 qualifier will be held on Sunday (June 30th).

Belarus being second in the medal table is laughable. I wonder if that is the future of multi-sport events. Sadly, it's becoming rather common.

Meh, these last few days are very poorly scheduled. Barely any highlights.

Nice quality live stream from Strzegom. They even have the trending score displayed on-screen, which is a welcome change compared to the earlier stages.

Another fairly straight forward rugby qualifier.

It was. Too deep into some fences and again not really asking for collection when needed. However, nobody was as bad as the Belarusian Silkina or what's her name. She was very much in the league of her own.

Horse lost a shoe. Commentator: "I've never seen something like this, have you?". Well, that expalins why he earlier said a gem like: "She is doing well, showing the horse the right direction."
