  3. Good morning from Spain! It's a real pleasure to be participating once more in this wonderful contest. Thanks a lot to our host @Cinnamon Bunfor taking the time to organize it. Without further ado, these are the results of the votes of the Spansh National Jury.... Spain Mexico 10 Czech Republic 9 New Zealand 8 Great Britain 7 Sweden 6 USA 5 Canada 4 Bulgaria 3 India 2 Chile 1
  4. I think that is probably the best that could have happened to her in the long term. If she won the bronze, it would have been one more of the 41 medals. Now her case has made it to the main page of Spanish press and she gained way more recognition and will keep the same allowance as if she won the medal.
  5. ESPAÑA David Bisbal - A Partir De Hoy Lyrics (Spanish): This Latin Pop song (with some influences of Flamenco) was released in 2018 as a collab between David Bisbal, one of the most popular Spanish singers since the early 2000s and Colombian singer Sebastián Yatra.
  6. I'm not sure if I will have enough time this year, but I will try to join if no other user wants.
  7. Swimmer Teresa Perales' 28th Paralympic medal made the front page in Marca, the main sports newspaper in Spain.
  8. 150 athletes in 16 sports for . The goal is 40 medals and 10 golds.
  9. Lacrosse already had more than 40 nations competing at the last World Championship if you include the qualification round. Although taking a look at the results the difference between US/Canada and the other teams was huge.
  10. According to this tweet 23 wins and no loses this century in big tournament finals. In smaller tournaments we also lost the second edition of the Nations League against France.
  11. Seven players (Unai Simón, Marc Cucurella, Martín Zubimendi, Mikel Merino, Mikel Oyarzabal, Pedri and Dani Olmo) were part of the team that won the silver medal 3 years ago in Tokyo. And fun fact, Oyarzabal scored in both finals. This year Fermín López and Álex Baena will join the team in Paris. They have not played much in EURO so they won't be very tired for the Olympics.
  12. 382 confirmed by our NOC. The list of the first page is missing 2 golfers (it's 4 instead of 2) @Benolympique
  13. Considering how difficult it is to qualify in this sport, I think it's pretty remarkable that from 1980 onwards, only missed the 2000 Olympics in men's basketball. 11 out of the last 12. Only and have a perfect record. In Europe the closest team is , that competed in 7 out of 8 Olympics after the independence. Let's see if they make it 8 out of 9 in a few hours.
  14. I don't think that's going to happen. If you asked me last year I saw a good chance for Aday Mara or even Izan Almansa to make the cut, but this season Aday joined UCLA and, as far as I know, he didn't play very often.
  15. Goal achieved! We are far from our top level in 2008-2012 and probably won't make it to the QF, but at least we managed to qualify and Rudy Fernández will play his 6th and last Olympics.
  16. Last minute change in line-up for the Men Singles: OUT Pablo Carreño IN Pedro Martínez Pablo Carreño will still play in Doubles with Marcel Granollers.
  17. Granollers and Sorribes for (not official yet).
  18. is probably better than in sabre, but Italian girls are stronger under pressure. We medaled in the 1st event of the OQR and after that we lost 44-45 against at Euros and 44-45 against at Worlds. This season we were paired four times in a row with in T8, so no option of making it to the final. The only time when we didn't face in T8 was the last event of the season, with the OQR already finished, and I think we took silver, but it was too late. In epee there were 4 teams with similar level fighting for the European spot []. We made it to SFs in the first OQR World Cup, but after that we lost 32-37 against at Euros (expected, but we had our chances during the match) and 43-44 against at Worlds. Fortunately the other European teams didn't have great performances and we still had a chance, but during the summer our top guy Yulen Pereira broke his wrist and even after he came back, his level was not as good as it used to be.
  19. That's funny considering we only had two team medals in European Championships until today and last one was 10 years ago Unfortunately we failed to qualify for the Olympics which was the main goal. Both teams had enough level to make it, but as usual in Spanish fencing they underperformed when it mattered the most.
  20. The Spanish team has been announced and Paula Badosa wont't use her protected ranking. Singles: Carlos Alcaraz Rafael Nadal Pablo Carreño Alejandro Davidovich Sara Sorribes Cristina Bucsa Pairs: Carlos Alcaraz & Rafael Nadal Marcel Granollers & TBD Sara Sorribes & Cristina Bucsa The mixed pair will be decided during the Olympics and Jessica Bouzas will join the team if she receives a reallocation.
  21. But Cabo Verde has one foilist, Victor Álvares, that at the very least is top150. Not sure about his current ranking, but I remember he even made it to the second day of World Cups from time to time.
  22. Susana Fornaris retired from fencing last year due to an injury. Furthermore it's unlikely for a country to receive two invitations in the same sport, so Mali should only get one. Especially in their situation where both fencers were raised in France and train there, so there is no benefit for the development of the sport. And you are missing the most likely invitation which is given the good relationship between FIE and its national federation.
