Nothing, just meant to say this town means nothing and is not special in any way whatsoever, which makes it extra interesting that three (!) Grand Slam winners come from this town

Can anyone find a video of the girls 400m hurdles final? I've been trying and trying but all I found was one geoblocked video

That really is quite strange indeed

I never looked at the scoring rules in detail, but you mean if you predict England to beat France in football by 3-0, but France takes the win 3-0, you still get points?

Muller takes the gold, after being jealous of her training partner Van Rouwendaal who won Olympic gold last year while Muller lost a medal because of her own fault Silver for Arevalo of Ecuador

This is a mystery

Snake in the water

Definitely And no, there's quite a lot of Dutch fans who don't really care about the flag in front of someone's name, because it's just a flag. Most cycling fans on the Dutch forums prefer their favourite cyclists instead of looking at the flag For example most people like Robert Gesink, but not Niki Terpstra or Lars Boom. And LottoNL-Jumbo isn't exactly popular in general because they've got a bunch of turds as managers like Jan Boven and Nico Verhoeven.

I definitely hope that's not gonna happen, I'm getting tired of Sunweb's #creatingmemories and semi-spiritual bullcrap and their destruction of the Dutch national champion's jersey (Sinkeldam is riding with a tiny Dutch flag and that's it, FDJ or Astana get it, Sunweb doesn't) Plus I hope the green jersey goes to the best sprinter. Where did you find this by the way, if I may ask?

Cross-country thread opened, I can almost feel the winter Next week the competitions in Australia will get underway, in a little over three weeks things will get going in Ushuaia where the Brazilians will fight for the first part of the Olympic tickets. I'm already starting to get nervous about that

20-year old Diede de Groot won the women's wheelchair singles title, her first GS win Fun fact: she is born in uninteresting and unimportant Woerden, a rather meaningless town. However, apart from De Groot, also Jiske Griffioen and Esther Vergeer (a combined total of 65 Grand Slam titles and a shitload of other wins and Paralympic gold medals) were born there....it's like being born in this useless town makes you a fantastic wheelchair tennis player

Today could be interesting, finally a day for the attackers I hope. Cummings has been sitting in the last wheel laughing around again, so today it's time to attack, and it would be very, very unsurprising to see the likes of Calmejane and Benoot join him Roglic has been 'saving his legs' yesterday, losing 13 minutes, so one should expect him today as well.

How should we call it then? Vino's Pain Train or something?

Even his own team mates don't like Aru "Froome has the yellow now." Valgren: "Good."

WTF, I didn't quite realize the women's final was still to be played.....it finished 6-0, 6-0

Paralympic snowboard champion Bibian Mentel-Spee has cancer......for the 9th time! http://nos.nl/artikel/2183394-opnieuw-kanker-geconstateerd-bij-mentel.html

What a match No way the men's singles final will top this.

Closed the roof for 5 minutes if Kubot/Melo finish this off

Wait what

And silver for Twan van Gendt, Joris Daudet was a bit too strong but that was a really cool fight

Gold for Laura Smulders French girls hit each other and both fell

She was dead last in the semi's though, behind the French girl who started 2 seconds later

Former world champion Niek Kimmann went wide in one of the turns and utterly destroyed the camera that was filming the live picture. Kinda funny but also a shame that he misses out on the final.

Marion Torres of France fell out of her clicks right before the start and had no chance, that's sad in front of your home crowd.
