Los Angeles 2028 Olympic organizers might hold cricket matches on the East Coast, possibly in New York, to suit the global audience, especially Indian fans. The decision is mainly driven by the time zone difference to maximize viewership. The LA28 committee has not yet confirmed the cricket venue, exploring multiple location options.

In the Chess Olympiad in Hungary, Bangladesh's opponent in the open section for the tenth round is Is*rael. However, one of Bangladesh's top Grandmasters, Enamul Hossain Rajib, has decided not to play in this round. He has announced his boycott of the match, specifically because the opponent is Israel.
 
 
On Friday night, Enamul wrote on his Facebook profile, "In the 2022 Chess Olympiad in Chennai and the 2024 Chess Olympiad in Hungary, Russia and Belarus were not allowed to participate as teams. So how can Israel participate in the current situation? Tomorrow, their match is against Bangladesh. I am boycotting it."

Yogasana is a sport that focuses on the physical aspect of yoga, where players have to perform yogic postures and are judged on their difficulty, balance, control, flexibility and endurance.
 
The rules of yogasana are different for every event. Competitions are generally held in three major events – artistic, rhythmic and traditional.
 
Artistic yogasana is similar to artistic gymnastics. Athletes have to perform postures for three minutes while synchronising their performance to music.
 
Athletes must include 10 asanas in their routine from a predetermined list, which includes leg balance, hand balance, back bend, forward bend and body twisting. Artistic yogasana is held in individual as well as pair categories.
 
Meanwhile, the traditional yogasana event requires participants to hold their postures for 15 seconds or 30 seconds, depending on the asana, with emphasis being laid on balance and stability.
 
The third event category, rhythmic yogasana, is conducted in pairs and groups of five. Players are required to perform asanas in sync with each other and maintain each posture for five to seven seconds. Points are also awarded for smooth transition between two postures.

Paralympian Jody Cundy won medals in all of his eight consecutive Paralympic Games he participated since 1996. He won a total of 13 medals in swimming and cycling.
 
 

Unfortunately this is all determined out of qualification scores, so if you fall down on that you leave yourself a difficult path to the final.

It is sad that  will face  in QF. Both are good archers. Should have faced during medal rounds.

this guy who won a gold medal yesterday and will probably win another one in next few days

is in fact the same person as this guy
https://worldathletics.org/athletes/islamic-republic-of-iran/sajjad-hashemiahangari-14422407
 
and he is not blind,  he is a national record holder in Iran in 400m and 2012 Olympian
 
I'm no doctor but I highly doubt he is qualified to participate in Paralympics in T12 class. he probably has a better eyesight than some of us here.
 
there are other Iranians in Paralympics, paid to compete for Turkiye but only this one completely changed his name, guess why ? probably to not get identified.  didn't work well.
 

Italy will raise it to Jury.
 
Perini's cellphone was in the bag which was kept in the boat. It was not intentional as per him.

Giacomo Perini, who originally won bronze in men’s PR1 single sculls, were found to be using communication equipment during the final and has been excluded from the event (ranked dead last)

Proposed Glasgow Commonwealth games 2026 :
 
Instead of the 20 sports at Birmingham 2022, Glasgow 2026 event would involve just 10 different disciplines.
 
Only four venues would be used including Scotstoun Stadium and the swimming pool at Tollcross. 
 
Number of athletes would be limited who will utilise the existing accommodation.

Third grade sports like swimming , cycling and diving should be completely scrapped from commonwealth games. Shooting and Kabaddi should be included.

So the  Fighter was winning 8-2 vs  in the final when she mistimed a kick and accidentally kicked her opponent in the face, which means she would be disqualified if the  fighter could not continue and the kick was deemed to be intentional. Clearly watching the replays it was not intentional as the kick hit the shoulder and then slipped up onto the head, and that's what the judges agreed. The controversy was that the  fighter chose not to compete in the hope the  fighter would be DQed, even though she was deemed fit to compete by the neutral medical doctor.
