but he has to avoid finishing 8th and facing kim in the quarters .fingers crossed.

Atanu Das on 13th after 2 ends of the archery preliminaries. four ends stilll to go.

Vikash's first opponent is American. So he will lose no matter how well he plays.

Narsingh cleared by UWW. Nowbring home that medal boy.

As far as I understood from the statement of a sports medicine expert on tv- the drug will be detectable in his body for months. Drugs are removed from the body as per their half lives. But what will be important is the level- because if he took it only once due to sabotage in the month of June - there will be a permissable limit which won't cause a ban because with sabotage theory accepted - one time ingestion will not be considered to cause any benefit.

Will add you all in an hour. For safety reasons send me your numbers as a private message and not publicly here

The Whatsapp group is up n running. People who are interested to join plz message me your numbers. The more the merrier.

That depends on the amount too.

Indian express says since it was not a wada ban - there should not be any problems.

So can he now go to Rio? What about last dates etc?

Seriously?

Ok All interested message me your numbers. dont post numbers here . message me. to clarify - this is not to replace totallympics (which is rreplacable) - just one more avenue to keep in touch?

Aap log ek Whatsapp group banane mein interested ho Indian members to lekar?

It's Olympic week folks. Have already declared to wife that I will be hogging the big screen TV, work at my clinic will strictly follow the Olympic schedule. Basically everything else is secondary

The official app is worthless. Can't even find the schedule properly there.

Yes the WFI in its infinite wisdom has postponed the entire camp. Feel bad for yogi and girls

Indian express reports that UWW has said quota stays with India. There's going to be a meeting between the Nada panel and narsingh on Wednesday. He has asked for a retest . panel is considering it. Wfi is supporting him. In the meantime - the preparation of the entire wrestling team is in jeopardy as the training camp in Georgia has now been indefinitely postponed. Looks like even Yogi and others will now suffer for the selfishness of one man. I once considered this man to be among the country's greatest sporting heroes. Our heroes sure have feet of clay.

The Telegraph says his B sample has also been found positive and his hearing has also started.

I think only a complete fool will try and dope after winning the right to fight in Rio after a bitter court battle. Has to be a big conspiracy behind this.

This is 100% a sabotage by the Sushil Kumar camp. Narsingh had already expressed doubts over his safety at the Sonepat camp. And now this. What a shame.

yuki wont be doing anything great

You are mixing exchange of quota between events and the right of an noc to select candidates based on the quotas won . the two are not at all the same. Anyways the point is moot as nrai will not change anything at this juncture.

Good analysis. Finally someone with realistic analysis. We really haven't made much progress in the last four yrs. Both in terms of medal prospects and interms of people with decent chance of winning ( as opposed to athletes just going there for a trip to Ipanema and such) we should have done much better.now we have several private funds and trusts supporting our athletes and the govt is also taking more interest and providing more funds. But our federations are the worst ( apart from nrai) . in boxing we have lost most of the ground we covered in the last decade.

Exactly. Narsingh is a definite contender . I will put vineesh ahead of babita.

I will put vineesh up with narsingh. She is an extremely canny grappler. Great technique .
