Men's Boulder, Finalists Sorato Anraku Mickael Mawem Kokoro Fujii Mejdi Schalck Lee Do Hyun Nikolai Uznik

shitty result by our girls in the women's team pursuit the world champions give up their title badly after finishing only 5th in the qualifiers (with an awful 4.5 sec distance from the leaders)

Friday morning, to make it even more impressive (even if this is the traditional holiday week in following the Aug. 1st, National Day) however, the great Adam Ondra on the verge of being eliminated

a bit worrying performance by our men's quartet, but they said today's gonna be different I just want to trust them, but I'm not sure right now they're good enough to match the Danes on the other hand, despite the 10th place, one more big improvement by our speed guys, almost 4/10 of a second taken off the National Record now we're "only" 8/10 of a second outside the bronze medal contenders...in LA I think we'll be there by the way, Predomo is already coming...yesterday he was the quickest among the final lap riders, even quicker than King Lavreysen we might have finally found a true heir of the great times featuring the Maspes, Gaiardoni and so on

6 in boulder, 8 in lead so far, the top 3 I think are safe into the final, then it's an open fight between Uznik and Ondra (among those who have already completed their effort) and those who can still get 3 tops Jenft I fear won't be able to keep his current 6th place

Discovery Plus has it all, this time (morning sessions included)

it's only 30% of the French amount of uranium they can find some elsewhere and compensate with less energetic export (which will fuck badly Spain and above all, Italy, who are the main buyers of energy from France) they're not gonna close down the Country for that...and Niger will experiment how nice are the Chinese and Russian governance instead of the French one as if it would change anything for them...the poorest Country in the world they are and they will remain, unfortunately for them if they really think it's gonna change in a better life for them, good luck!

nooooo! scored the game winner vs with only 3 seconds left in the regulation @hckošice

men lost to in the round of 16 the score was 3-5 in terms of sets (53-53, 54-52, 54-56, 51-52 the single sets) 1) only for the semi/finals sessions on Friday and Sunday (it should be on both the Olympic Channel and the Youtube Page of World Archery, depending on the location) 2) no, it will take place on Friday (Bronze Medal match @ 6.04 p.m. CET; Gold Medal match @ 6.23 p.m. CET)

1977 (in Canberra) when the medals went respectively to fun fact, the first Asian team to win a medal in the women's team event was (silver in 1975), meanwhile from 1933 (1st edition) to 1973 they never won a single medal then, from 1979 on, there's always been at least an Asian team on the podium

actually, in the iofficial qualification document there's no reference at all to the chance that would eventually be in the top 3 so, I guess there's room for interpretation and WA just were satisfied with those 3 teams taking the quota places it's a shame that not all the options are taken into consideration in such important occasion

not yet

first big tournament of the season, the traditional youth Hlìnka-Gretzky Cup this year in (Breclav) and (Trencin) preliminary stages are well underway...and this is how it went so far: Group A Day #1 b. 11-1 (2-0, 3-1, 6-0) b. 7-2 (1-0, 2-2, 4-0) Day #2 b. 6-1 (2-1, 2-0, 2-0) b. 6-2 (1-0, 4-2, 1-0) Group B Day #1 b. 9-6 (2-3, 3-1, 4-2) b. 6-3 (2-1, 1-1, 3-1) Day #2 b. 3-1 (0-0, 2-0, 1-1) b. 14-4 (2-0, 6-3, 6-1) Standings Group A 1. 6 Pts (13 GF, 4 GA) 2. 3 Pts (8 GF, 8 GA, direct matchup vs winners) 3. 3 Pts (12 GF, 7 GA, direct matchup vs losers) 4. 0 Pts (3 GF, 17 GA) Group B 1. 6 Pts (9 GF, 4 GA) 2. 3 Pts (10 GF, 9 GA, direct matchup vs winners) 3. 3 Pts (20 GF, 13 GA, direct matchup vs losers) 4. 0 Pts (7 GF, 20 GA) Today the 3rd round of the preliminary groups will decide the semifinals and the consolation games matchups

looking at scores, it's not impossible for to play level with but from now to next Friday it's a long time and the pressure on our guys might increase too much, especially after the girls missed out on their job

no, if make the podium, that spot is reallocated to the final qualification tournament in

it's not in the second men's semifinal match

won 6-2 vs dramatic 4-4 tie between and always on the men's side

b. 5-1 in the men's tournament leading 4-2 vs

I don't think so, we've had such bad results in the world cup stage... on the women's side, I think we can only rely on the continental quota right now

once again showed that they "own" the mentally in major competitions on the men's side meanwhile the women proved themselves a bunch of loser for the billionth time as they wasted an open route to the podium (and the Olympic qualification)

but at the Olympics there are way less rounds and matches (and only 1 field for the knockout stage part of the event) however, they should at least have the full coverage from the quarterfinals on, showing only the medal matches is really a bad job

I don't know, but it was written almost everywhere when he came to the USA (and that was said to be a reason why he chose the Angels over the Mariners, that at the time already had Kikuchi in their roster) I think he wants all the Japanese media being focused on him and not sharing time and attention to any other compatriot in the same team (not that nowadays it would be an issue, but a few years ago it could well be) however, I guess it's gonna be a 3-team race for him next November (Dodgers and both the NY teams...the only ones that could afford to go up in the 600 million area he's supposed to ask for his next contract -10 years at least)
