Not really true

- 1 Year today. Medal design unveiled :https://tokyo2020.org/en/games/medals/olympic-design/

5 wins in "low" level meetings, not worthy of an headline like that

Try posting a meme "Sun got sMacked" on Chinese social media and then report back with the comments that you receive

Don't be so sure, if the antidoping officer really failed to provide evidence of her identity/qualification to Sun, then he legally had the right to refuse the test...which he did in an horrible way, but I don't know if this is enough of a reason to cancel his results or ban him for years.

Last year at the ECH Germany were trashed by Greece and Italy (14-1 iirc)...now two close matches with Italy and, above all, Croatia. Quite difficult to ask for more.

Wellbrock out with a very bad time, is he also sick?

Yes, last time Fiamingo and Szasz took the European spots, Navarria and Samuelsson missed out despite being in top 8 I think.

Poland and Hungary are 9th and 10th in the World Ranking. Since in WC events there is a draw of pairs except for top 4, there's no difference between being 9th or 10th. You both have a 50% chance to get Korea or Germany in r16.

In my opinion very difficult to estimate: Tunisia never fielded a team in World Cup except for the last event, which was the first event of the qualification period but also held in Tunis, so I don't even know if they want to qualify or not. If they want to qualify and always field a team, imo the only chance for them to drop out of the top 16 is that all teams who are in top 16 here overtake them in the ranking (especially TUR, HKG, AZE...maybe VEN is the only other team that would have a real chance). In that case it would come down to matches between TUN and these teams in the r32 of World Cups. TUN is weaker than all of them but they would only need one good day to secure their spot.

200 IM results please? Results page not working anymore for me.

La sconfitta della Russia non cambia assolutamente nulla per l'Italia, e anche affrontare la Spagna anzichè l'Olanda nell'eventuale semifinale a me non sembra una buona notizia.

Yeah it looks correct. M sabre is well defined, those 8 teams will likely qualify. In W epee Egypt will almost surely drop out of the top 16, so there will be one more spot for an European team, and Canada must hope for USA to stay in top 4.

But his best event is the 50m and he's still a contender for silver/bronze there.

No sorry. Egypt has 121 points already in the OR. Even if they always lose in r32 they'll reach 145 (but they have a good ranking and it will be much more probably). No way they can drop to 17th.

You're wrong then...top 16 here and at 4 out of 5 world cups + African gold...they will be in quite easily.

Egypt will be in top 16.

Great let's start with generalizations based on nationality...as if people from a certain country were better with their constant hating on UK-US in every thread. I'll stick to prediction contests from now on...

USA are first seed but not the strongest team...anyway, unlike 2015-16, the team is Fiamingo's only chance to qualify for the Olympics so she has to perform well for her own sake.
