because Rogora, Schubert and the 2 Japanese girls were all tied for 7th place (44+ their score) and, since the qualification event was held in 2 separate heats, they couldn't go to countback from the qualification round...
so, the jury decided that 10 was still a reasonable number of climbers (not impacting too much the lenght of the TV broadcast) and enlarged the field of starters of the final, rather than going through a complicated (and unfair) tie-breaker...

just another day to forget for Italy...
this time it really looks we can only win some medals in Junior and/or "abandoned" events...
meanwhile, in the events that really matter, amazing final in the women's 25m pistol, where Batsarashkina first wasted a 5-shot advantage midway through the final and then lost to Kostevych after an endless shoot-off...
for neutral spectators, these champs are showing so many exciting and really entertaining competitions...almost every day there's at least 1 final to be remembered for the ages, with a lot of drama and turnarounds...

naaa, we still have a lot of young talents (and a very wide field of shooters where to choose from) also in Trap...
and I'm pretty sure we're gonna get the full set of Olympic spots even if we miss out here in Changwon...
Shotgun Shooting is "our" sport (like Fencing)...we can have a bad day, a bad year...even a bad decade...but we always gonna be the team to beat in all of our opponents' mind...

Gianlu33 reacted to phelps in Shooting ISSF World Championships 2018
we're just at the beginning, but this World Championship is already a total disaster for Italy...
Zublasing losing her Air Rifle World Title without even getting at least an Olympic spot and...the Men's Trap...what a shame of a competition for us!
I expected our guys to dominate the field and take home 2 medals and 2 Olympic quota (De Filippis won the World Cup event in this same range in April and Pellielo...well, he simply is Giovanni Pellielo...no need for anything alse to be written about him)...and instead...nothing! bleah! I'm really disgusted...

Honestly I didn't remember this, but Israel, Denmark, Northern Ireland and Netherlands are surely border country with Italy... to be honest, it is not that I'm against the "brand development" of the Giro, but the southern part of Italy, where I live, is usually out of the way, in some years the Giro doesn't reach southern than Rome

The multi-sport video games section will now be changed to Totallympics TV where it will focus primarily on multi-sport games, but will now post world championships, world cups, and Olympic qualification events for all sports. More info to come soon.
Also if anyone could make a logo for it, or can come up with a better name it would be much appreciated

no one of those activities (e-sports, mind games nor motorized vehicle competitions) should be named "sports"...
by definition, sport is a combination of mental and physycal skills (e-sports and mind games do NOT have the physycal part of the game, despite some people might start saying the opposite), the outcome of which must be mainly determined by human ability (and this takes also the "motorsports" away, since you can be the best driver in the world, but still you're going to end up dead last if you vehicle is not performing at least very close to those of your opponents)...
however, I don't care too much about those definitions taken from vocabolaies and encyclopedia...people can think and say what they want, but if the IOC adds to the Olympic Games schedule anything related to mind games, e-sports and motorsports I'm done with the Olympic Ideal and the Olympic Games once and forever. point.

lol Indonesia is only 6 gold medals behind South Korea with more Pencak Silat medals and more help from the refs, why not !
since 1978 this is the first time in history that somebody else is threatening the big 3 in Asia.
and since 1998 we always had Korea in 2nd place and Japan in 3rd. this is apparently going to change this time

Gabon and Bolivia have already been mentioned and shouldn't be on the list.
If you count the IFBB World Championships (Bodybuilding and Fitness, results by year here
https://ifbb.com/contest-report-2018/) the following have won at least a gold:
Iraq
Oman
Libya
Malta
Iceland
