  1. Lyles came to pick up his 100m gold and did a calm 200m jog to get into the semis while he was there anyway
  2. Kind of the opposite of the Dutch men, where it's been a hot mess for 2-3 years now in terms of coaches and the close friendship between Lavreysen and Hoogland (in Tokyo they were still roommates as always) basically disappearing due to, among other things, Lavreysen wanting one coach and Hoogland and most of the others wanting another - and Lavreysen getting his way.
  3. During the men's 200m? Nah She's amazing, but not sub-21 amazing
  4. Vloon well on his way to his traditional underperformance when the pressure is on.
  5. Significantly more than expected compared to Australia at least Seems like they're on their way back to top shape after a relatively vulnerable time recently.
  6. Advanced to the final, as he should be: Arce pushed him to the inside and made it impossible for him to get the water jump.
  7. I think a bigger factor in this specific case might be that last Olympics the women's team sprint was still done with two riders..
  8. Imagine riding a WR and not making the Olympic final
  9. Race 10 was abandoned and now apparently Bouwmeester is the champion. What a climax!
  10. All the bumping and fighting and pushing and rolling and everything Gotta have a real tough mindset and physique to stay ahead.
  11. I really wish one of these athletes had a Totallympics profile and could join the discussion from an athletes' view Honestly I'm more annoyed that the sport is called canoe slalom while four out of six Olympic events are in a kayak.
  12. Another gold for the Fox family, someone please remove all the alcohol from @hckoĆĄice's house or else this is going wrong
  13. Exactly, and here we generally dislike the (current format of) the mass start Considering like speed skating, canoe slalom is a rather niche and obscure sport in the world, I think a majority of Olympic viewers will actually like it... Curious what (all of) the athletes think of it, that's the most important I think.
  14. This is what I will remember Grigar for, Olympic small finalist in the kayak cross, yes
  15. Meanwhile I'm reading and posting on a Dutch forum and there we are all very much enjoying it
  16. 5th* And not really, but you never know who gets caught at some point, need to have a ranking
  17. Oh definitely, no athlete is going to say "I prefer no medal than a medal because I am not happy this event was added" Any athlete who didn't want a medal here would simply DNS.
