  1. I was not talking about an amateur blog post or something, but the official Swiss Tennis federation site. (It's the same text actually). IMO, it's better to wait the official draw of the mixed double before reaching any conclusion.
  2. On the french swiss tennis website, they only talk about their "wish" to play together. It doesn't read as an hard confirmation that they will.
  3. Hi, they will be in Hérouville (Normandy). You may find a streaming link somewhere, if not their facebook page will hopefully giving the results.
  4. First rounds should have started if I'm not mistaken. Yet we don't have any stream or live scoring.
  5. No comments... I can't anymore. Ignore list here we come.
  6. YES§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§
  7. Men's semis Germany (3) - France (10) Malaysia (8) - Indonesia (12)
  8. http://worldarchery.org/competition/16604/world-archery-final-rio-2016-olympic-qualifying-tournament
  9. A disaster session apparently (52/45/45) And once again we will have a decisive France-Canada for olympic qualification.
  10. French selection (no surprise at all) Men's single: - Richard Gasquet - Jo Wilfried Tsonga - Gaël Monfils - Gilles Simon Women's Single: Kristina Mladenovic Caroline Garcia Alizée Cornet Men's Double: Mahut-Herbert (aka the non selectable ones) Tsonga-Gasquet Women's double: Garcia-Mladenovic
  11. At that point, weightlifting could be used as a perfect pet-subject for a real harsh (and hopefully efficient) anti-doping policy: - Life ban for first offenders - Elimination of any record/medal won by a convicted doper - Systematic bans for federation with multiple doping offenders (≥ 2) - Frozen prize pools (4 years) - Reset of every reccords - etc. If it fails, then the sport is out of the olympics (and is likely going to die). If it success, then it could be used as a blue print for other sports.
  12. What about Argentina then ? From the little I've seen, they looked like a decent team also. By the way, Cuba's first half yesterday night was awful.
  13. That's the less likely to happen exemple I've ever seen. Anyway, I - very suprisingly - happen to agree with Benolympique on that one. It's messy. There are too many informations for one table (and it's written too big also) You could also think of breaking up the table later on between medallist nations and non-medalist nations (the latter one beeing on spoiler)
  14. Not necessarily, Fed/Davis Cup exemptions can only be given in cases of long term injuries (> six months), which was not the case here. IMO, as long as she is in good term with her federation (is she ?), the ITF will find a way to let her in Rio. But, it is not a given.
  15. What will happen if the number of athletes qualified to Rio overpass the cap of 2,000 athletes set by the IAAF and the IOC ?
  16. Yeah, I've read that too, but I find it amusing that when everyone (from medias, to fans and themselves included) act like they are qualified to Rio, that someone will look at a wikipedia page and say: no, you all are wrong Anyway, the reason why they are "selectable" is because of the "Strenght of Nation" amendement The Davis Cup/Fed Cup thing exists only to exclude from the olympics players that refuse international duty, not the ones who are not selected in the first place.
  17. Ah thanks, didn't know that. By the way, do you know what would be the tie-breaker in case of an equal combined ranking ? (like we have at the moment between Fed/Hingis and Mahut/Garcia)
  18. "Not selectable" as in you can't press the button select on them ?
  19. For France, Mladenovic announcerd before RG that she was going to play with Herbert during the Olympics. Garcia-Mahut is also a given There should be the 4 top seeded doubles: Federer/Hingis (Sui/4) Mahut/Garcia (Fra/4) Bryan/Williams (USA/5) Muguruza/Nadal (ESP/6)
