April's fool?

prepare to be shocked...it's surely decided by the superMan in charge, the one and only 1976 Fencing Olympic Champion himself he's only to take from Governments of the Olympic hosts, not to give

so, this result leaves the door open for the girls @ 59kg and @ 71kg, should they win gold here in however, I don't understand why they take as a comparison, when they already know the Koreans won't be in Paris...I mean, without , the Gold medal is pretty safe in this class, more than in the -59kg and the -71kg, it doesn't matter if they win or not Gold here @Vic Liu for what concerns , Giulia Imperio once again bombed out and leaves herself out of the top 10 of the OQR, even if she could still make the Olympics sneaking back in from the window after the top Nations make their choice (especially should leave the -49kg class out) for what concerns the overall OQR, Today's big winner is Fang Wan Ling, who lifted a total of 192kg and breaks into the top 10 (9th useful place) at the same time, Katherin Oriana Echandia Zarate improves by 3 kilos her total (now she's @ 193kg, 8th useful place in the OQR) and keeps herself in qualifying position the unlucky woman of the day, instead, is Rosegie Ramos, not capable of improving her total of 191kg and dropping down to the 11th useful place in the OQR (which in any case might prove more than OK, after all the final allocations)

women's -49kg Gold: Ri Song Gum (total: 221kg WR*) Silver: Hou Zhihui** (total: 217kg) Bronze: Jiang Huihua (total: 208kg) ** Snatch World Record @ 97kg (same lift of Ri, but the North Korean lifted after the Chinese woman) Group A Full Table

in this case, it's not about the travel ban...it's about the 4 years without a single doping test for the North Korean athletes all the National Federations have been lobbying hard for what basically is a hidden doping ban against (because it's obvious that the lifters that are destroying record after record, in the past 4 years have been built with God knows what kind of practice)

women's -45kg (non-Olympic event) Gold: Won Hyon Sim (total: 196kg WR*) Silver: Siriwimon Pramonghkhol (total: 176kg) Bronze: Khong My Phong (total: 160kg) *WR also in Snatch and C&J

no, they didn't take part in the last World Champs (nor in the events of the 1st stint of the OQP), so they can't be in Paris (luckily)
