Hard to see that as a bad thing, to be honest Nothing at all against her, but doing a 200m breast and not even 20 minutes later a 50m fly should be kind of impossible...

Vanotterdijk smashes another Belgian record.

ER - European Record AF..... - African Record? https://www.omegatiming.com/File/00011900010102EE0104FFFFFFFFFF01.pdf

African record for Coetze, I believe? And still not even anywhere close to Peirsol super suit (or pants, in his case) time
-
Time to add the 400 meters in the slow/alternative strokes, that'd bring Corbeau gold for sure and finally give a chance to those who specialize in the slower strokes but need more time to get going, they're treated unfairly now
-
A bit more about Van Wijk: she spent a larger part of her childhood in hospitals than at school, as a matter of speech. Born with a rare growth syndrome, she's had scoliosis and kidney cancer, problems with an assymetric body and lots of bullying. Also tried basketball due to her length, but she kept breaking bones, so that didn't work. To think she's still only 20 years old..
-
To be fair, Van Wijk is so tall she basically only needs to swim 95 meters (she's closing in on 2 meters due to a growth syndrome)
-
Oh wow, that world title for Steenbergen is a lot more valuable than the one of last year Van Wijk of all people being this close to a medal
-
We start the evening of with the main final of the women's program, let's go

Yuck factor’: eating insects rather than meat to help the planet is failing, study finds -
Not more than one out of, say, the Central African Republic, North Korea, Eritrea, Russia, Syria, Palestine, Somalia or Sudan, ouch USA is not on my wish list, but I do think I'd prefer it over those others at the moment

You're lucky if for that money the pump even starts working here

Says something about the competitiveness of an event when the clear winner is entirely disappointed because of not breaking the WR
-
The whole area in Pakistan has apparently been extremely warm and dry, leading to lots and lots of rockfall the entire season and a lot of climbing expeditions turning back or being outright cancelled. There's also a rumour a wrong move with the rope may have caused it, but no idea what they based that on.

Thanks, I was still gonna watch that Still in favour of sticking to the sports the threads are about, or use spoilers
-
Says a whole lot about her..
-
Never thought I'd be talking in this thread about the person who was basically my favourite athlete in the world, across all sports, for her entire senior career Rest in peace, Laura Dahlmeier

Another lobsided pair of semi's: Yu makes it with a 6th place in her semi.

What do you mean, Russian? Listening to the English language commentators on things like Eurovisionsports suggests they don't exist and certainly aren't Russian, "the individual neutral athlete is coming on strong, next to the Australian, but the individual neutral athlete might come up a bit short and it's silver for the individual neutral athlete!"
-
Yeah, good luck getting any non-Polish commentator to pronounce any Polish name correctly
-
Oh wow, Italian gold. @copravolley can finally relax a bit
-
Thank you, Dutch commentator. "THERE'S A MEDAL COMING!", 10 meters before the finish, followed by De Groot finishing in 7th (and never having really been in contention).
-
Oh, by the way, the overall lack of excitement in this final took a bit of my attention from that, but yeah, that's the 3rd fastest time ever and indeed the fastest ever in non-supersuits
-
Well that was one of the least interesting finals so far
-
Also because it says this: One of her companions, identified as Kraus Marina Eva, was still stuck at the site, he said. While every other report so far has said Kraus had made it back to base camp (or was at least on her way), together with the aforementioned Thomas Huber.
