  1. Right, that helps More than excellent swim for Kovacs, it seems.
  2. Yeah, now, but I mean, what their expected level is. It's like if Niklas Kaul is 10th after day one of the decathlon, media might say he's having a hard time, when in reality he might actually have put himself in strong medal contention with that.
  3. No idea what her normal level is compared to those others though.
  4. I have this same feeling and it's bugging me to no end
  5. Sure, but that doesn't really change the general strengths (like a weak swimmer suddenly becoming one of the better ones because of this)
  6. Yeah, why choose a small one? At least 200k people will want to see who would be the very best modern soldier (in 1896)
  7. Who are supposed to be the good swimmers? Because I dare bet Eurosport will simply call the fastest times great, even if they're actually disappointing for the athletes since they're supposed to do better
  8. Two judges give it to blue, one gives it to red, two have it a draw but that's not allowed....so red wins. Boxing
  9. Yet somehow she birdied the 17th on all three days
  10. But they do need to add combined graphics especially in the lead phase. Every single move can change the order and with that all being calculated automatically, it can be updated within 1-2 seconds of the hold being reached, but they're not showing anything at all. Now you have to keep track yourself or just stare at the live score on a different screen, which is just not useful.
  11. There he is for real!! And that's it for real now for the 50km. What a bit of will power for the Ecuadorian, wow. He must have had some sort of injury or sickness or something, he should normally be an hour or more faster (sure, conditions are warm, but still). He is the 2019 Pan American Games champion, after all.
  12. Now they realized, they were talking him towards the finish and only then realized he had one more lap to go
  13. Either the English Eurosport commentators really think this is Villanueva's last kilometer or he had the fastest kilometers in the entire event by anyone Edit: Alright, they are truly convinced this is his last kilometer.
  14. Surprisingly (especially to myself), after watching the finals, I'm interested to watch it more often when there's not much else going on. It was kind of relaxing
  15. Oh wait, no way this is the actual finish already. He was 34 minutes behind Bilodeau at 45km and Bilodeau only finished 8 minutes ago
  16. Stupid TV directors, I wanted the backstage shots (with other athletes) like we got from the medalists
  17. Awesome protest would be to keep walking, perfectly abiding by the rules, but taking 7+ hours to finish
  18. Yeah I wished Toth more than this, but with world and Olympic gold, his career is definitely complete
  19. Villanueva meanwhile passing through 38km or something?
  20. This bronze made me happier than almost any other medal these Olympics
