  1. Lol they gave GBR a time of 4:28, the finish time of the third rider. They had a time that would have placed 6th at 3625m, they could have taken that one at least to acknowledge the damage.
  2. Told you Argentina was going to win. I'm surprised it took 5 sets, another fail by Italy at these Games.
  3. I don't trust that guy, it's well known that he cheated in the final v. Italy
  4. Oh well, easy gold for DEN. When you are already the top team and get away with dubious calls, no chance to lose
  5. Rules also say that DEN should have left space for GBR to set a time, which they clearly didn't
  6. Disappointed by the German women, they barely did 1 second better than their countrymen at Athens 2004.
  7. I can't see why any country, who is capable of qualifying a team would support it, perhaps even more so if they are a smaller (in fencing terms) country specialized in a weapon only, like Estonia in epee, etc. And about groups, if the goal is to increase diversity in medalists groups are not the best idea- single elimination format makes surprises more likely to happen.
  8. Only the gold for Jacobs is worth +3 on my vote. And the second part of the Games will probably be even less enjoyable as usual.
  9. Team events and quotas are fully confirmed for Paris 2024 so that would mean a much smaller field in individual events despite the fencers being on site.
  10. Top half: Brazil-ROC Korea-Turkey Bottom half: Serbia-Italy USA-Dominican Republic
  11. They could let him do for fun after the competition just to see what the WR would be in such conditions.
  12. Ganna can't give it all otherwise he would drop the other 3, that's not good news
  13. Very disappointed with the Italian women. They played the decisive game for the bracket (against an already eliminated China) as if it was a friendly, all smiling despite the mistakes and the heavy loss. The coach will have a lot to answer for if they don't reach the final.
  14. About the shared gold, a jump-off with the current rules doesn't make much sense. It's not shooting, athletes get too tired to jump any higher and to decide the gold jumping again at lower and lower heights would be meh, worse than having two winners. If you don't want two golds, the only fair way would be a repeat the day after, with rested competitors- same for gymnastics and swimming (although there they could use thousands of seconds in extreme cases)
  15. Not another silver losing to Brazil in final please ?. I prefer losing in quarters and Argentina getting a medal to that
  16. Easy win for FRA and ARG, no doubt about that. The other semi will be BRA-Russianolympiccommittee
  17. Really? What about Kuchina-Licwinko at World Indoor Championships in Poland? That was 2014 https://worldathletics.org/news/report/95?urlSlug=95&type=report
  18. Congrats, I opened the thread and fully expected an OlympicsFan's comment like this but you managed to join him
  19. - , - are set as quarters Japan-Iran and Argentina-USA later are elimination matches
  20. Not really, he has been one of the best archers for a while
  21. Every Italian choking on finals or semis, time to cut to zero the funding in sports where we are useless and invest that money into mental coaching for the top athletes.
