Another small bit of news: Brazil will be present in at least the first five IBU Cups + the Open European Championships this season (at least that's the plan) The rest will depend on who goes to the Olympics or not.

Sisters distracting each other, both with two misses

Interview with Carine Leijn on Biathlon23: https://biathlon23.wordpress.com/2017/08/17/carine-leijn-the-interview/ Pretty nice, except for one thing: apparently big sister Lilian has retired from biathlon over the summer (or last winter), which means the Netherlands now really only has Carine Leijn and Jarl Hengstmengel left

As far as I know the two best Moldovans switched from Ukraine

Fixed that for you

It would have helped if the Mongolians would have started

Clean start for Paulina

Rumours have it Barguil and Kelderman (almost?) got to fighting in the hotel last night Barguil really seems to be sort of a new Richard Virenque, but even more arrogant and shitty than the old one

Welcome in Libya, Boris Johnson!

I forgot Eurovision shows it live so missed the men's sprint Women's sprint still to come though http://www.eurovisionsports.tv/ibu/

I read basically all tickets were sold, that's impressive indeed

For a long time it looked like he was falling back into anonimity after his huge youth/junior success, but this was one hell of a victory Hopefully it'll be the true start of his career.

Barguil refused to help team leader Wilco Kelderman get back after a puncture yesterday, so now Sunweb has kicked Barguil out of the Vuelta

Disappointing that Tissot Timing doesn't have results for the junior world champs, I thought they'd do that as well (like in road cycling they do have junior categories). Are live results and such found somewhere else (preferrably somewhere that uses the country codes instead of flags so you can actually search for your nation ).

Motorbike hitting a rider, that was a while ago so it had to happen again

The earth is billions of years old, nature always changes and will always keep doing so

Meanwhile in Texas, people are preparing for one hell of a hurricane, Harvey is closing in with insane rains that might only get worse because it's moving very slowly.

Russia was obviously too strong (although the difference was surprisingly small), but look @hckosice http://ibu.blob.core.windows.net/docs/1617/SB/SWRL/CH__/MXRL/BT_C73C_1.0.pdf No penalty loop

Europa Cup final in 2016/17, no European football in 2017/18, Ajax They lost 0-1 at home against Rosenborg, now in Norway Rosenborg was leading 1-0 but in a matter of around one minute Ajax turned it around to 1-2! They were sort of dominating, this was going really good.....until for some magical reason the coach decided to change one of the two attackers for a defender from the 2nd team, after which all hell broke loose and Rosenborg turned it around to win 3-2.

No solid food Bananito Betancur for a while.

Wow, that finish of the 500m

It will be bizarre indeed. Seeing the insane atmosphere at the U18 world championships in Nairobi, where the big stadium was 100% full and cheering and dancing and jumping...and that was only for youth athletics! For a senior championships it would be by far the best atmosphere ever in athletics. Of course nations would be much less likely to withdraw from a senior world champs than from a youth event.

Miller-Uibo ran one DL meet before today, yet wins in Zürich and is crowned Diamond League champion. I agree with @Maxim Fastovsky, this format is a joke

One out of Kenya, South Africa, Nigeria, Algeria, Egypt and Morocco will bid for the 2025 world championships. Whatever happens, that should 100% be Kenya, no doubt about it. At all.

Froome doing nothing but sitting in Contador's wheel like a cowardly dog.
