Great choice. He may ride the time trial next day though

I say one person only was much better option and i pick an obvious choice. Iga Świątek (tennis) if the organizers plan her match on Day 2 ofc…

You can choose Man and Woman ? But you can choose only one person, it is up to you.

Awful game vs for us but we will qualify via ranking anyway so whatever… i don’t like this quali via ranking system at all, it is good for Polish teams ofc but it makes the qualifying tournaments not as entertaining as they could be

@rybak i agree with your simulation almost 100% this may be less than 200 athletes in total this time but maybe less athletes than before but more medals??? We will see…

I doubt that will be there in Paris. But who knows . This weightlifting result may prove otherwise

I will be back with this thing soon, stay tuned. I don't expect more than 5 users voting after such a long hiatus but whatever... ;-)

Wow. How do you find time for all of this? I can hardly watch 5% of it weekly.

Budapest 2036 would be the best option for me. It would be very close, less expensive than other places for me and Poland wouldn’t have to pay for it. but ofc Warsaw 2036 would be my dreams come true. But this is obviously just pre-elections promises. One of the most important elections since 1989 here in two weeks time. India 2036 is still favourite imho and deservedly so I think Warsaw 2044 would be the best option. 100 years after Warsaw Uprising. But if you make olympic anmouncements in the middle of the elections campaign, you split the nation in half on this topic too if there is an olympic referendum in Warsaw these days people would say no and i wonder if Okęcie AirPort still exists in 2044 so close to the city centre. These areas could work well for olympic village and olympic park with the most important venues all close to each other i am not sure if this Okęcie olympic project is good though because i feel many people would earn dirty money on this well, see you in India 2036 anyway

Where do you watch gymnastics WCH?

Thanks everyone for joining the thread. Feel free to make your complete predictions like @Josh but when you want to do it in certain sports only, that would be great as well!!!

I wonder if Eddie Jones has booked his flight to Japan already… 🤦🏻

This is pretty awesome that small nations like Fiji Samoa and Tonga can be so good in a team sport. Respect i’ve just told my family i want a Fiji rugby shirt for Christmas hah

Flying Fijians 💪

💪

Looks like Fiji goes to the Last 8! Ha!!!

And how about Vollering in the time trial?

The weakest AUS team ever???

Both teams should play their best squads because it is better to qualify a year earlier than wait for the rankings outcome. But i think both will be in Paris in the end.

We will both qualify, one of our teams via ranking. This match is not that relevant imho

While watching a nice game of rugby SCO vs TGA, I was thinking about your comments here and I guess you are absolutely right about McIntosh chances vs Ledecky in W 400m free. 3.56.08 vs 3.58.73 on 2023 LC world lists is a big difference. So i have decided to upgrade McIntosh to silver and Ledecky gets bronze. The rest stays the same. Turling is close 4th in M time trial. AUS still beat ITA in m relay by a smallest difference possible. So it looks like that now: Day 1 Sat 27.07 1. DIVING - W Synchro 3m Springboard 1. China 2. United States 3. Great Britain Similar results to 2023 WCH, but this time USA will be able to repeat their qualifying score in the final 2. FENCING - W Epee Ind 1. Marie-Florence Candassamy FRA 2. Vivian Kong HKG 3. Alberta Santuccio ITA Candassamy, current World Champion and no. 1 in world rankings, winning gold on home soil in style. Allez Les Bleus! 3. FENCING - M Sabre Ind 1. Sandro Bazadze GEO 2. Eli Dershwitz USA 3. Aron Szilagyi HUN Bazadze making revenge for the 2023 WCH final 4. JUDO - W -48kg 1. Natsumi Tsunoda JPN 2. Assunta Scutto ITA 3. Shirine Boukli FRA 3. Milica Nikolic SRB Tsunoda coming from behind with an ippon in the final seconds, a final for the ages 5. JUDO - M -60kg 1. Ryuju Nagayama JPN 2. Francisco Garrigos ESP 3. Dilshodbek Baratov UZB 3. Balabay Aghayev AZE 2nd gold for JPN, Nagayama instead of Takato in the olympic tournament turns out to be a good choice 6. ROAD CYCLING - M Ind Time Trial 1. Remco Evenepoel BEL 2. Tadej Pogacar SLO 3. Filippo Ganna ITA Day 1 is pretty good for current World Champions, so Evenepoel gets gold as well. But it is very close race, all three medalists within 15 seconds 7. ROAD CYCLING - W Ind Time Trial 1. Chloe Dygert USA 2. Demi Vollering NED 3. Grace Brown AUS First gold of the games for Team USA 8. RUGBY SEVENS - M Tournament 1. Fiji 2. New Zealand 3. Argentina Aaaaand Fiji wins again, never underestimate the heart of the champion, they say... Ireland 4th after last-minute try by Argentina 9. SHOOTING - Mixed Team 10m Air Rifle 1. China 2. India 3. Iran Iran hard-won bronze against hosts 10. SKATEBOARDING - M Street 1. Aurelien Giraud FRA 2. Nyjah Huston USA 3. Gustavo Ribeiro POR And 2nd gold for France on Day 1, no surprise here as well 11. SWIMMING - M 400m Free 1. Ahmed Hafnaoui TUN 2. Samuel Short AUS 3. Lukas Martens GER This time Tunisia gets gold from Lane 4, not 8 12. SWIMMING - W 400m Free 1. Ariarne Titmus AUS 2. Summer McIntosh CAN 3. Katie Ledecky USA McIntosh gets her first medal here, much better race for her than 2023 WCH (updated, because previously I thought it could be 2. Ledecky 3. McIntosh) 13. SWIMMING - W 4x100m Free Relay 1. Australia 2. United States 3. China Aussies with WR, obviously 14. SWIMMING - M 4x100m Free Relay 1. Australia 2. Italy 3. Great Britain Chalmers denying Ceccon by 0,01 sec. GBR didn't get DSQ this time. But US did. Medal table after Day 1 (14 events) 3-1-1---5 2-0-1---3 2-0-1---3 2-0-0---2 1-4-1---6 1-0-0---1 1-0-0---1 1-0-0---1 1-0-0---1 0-2-2---4 0-2-0---2 0-1-0---1 0-1-0---1 0-1-0---1 0-1-0---1 0-1-0---1 0-1-0---1 0-0-2---2 0-0-1---1 0-0-1---1 0-0-1---1 0-0-1---1 0-0-1---1 0-0-1---1 0-0-1---1 0-0-1---1
