It's so nice to see one swimmer from the city I used to live in, Joinville, earning a medal in swimming! Beautiful team work!

This bronze medal for Brazil was the most exciting of the Games so far :clap:

Sadly that's a problem within Swimming events and Daniel Dias has spoken in the past that it was kinda unfair that athletes there were from a higher class (S6) now are competing with him in S5. Anyway, it's nice to see him still managing to get medals.

Yup... Canada had two defending Champs in swimming and lost both here due to athletes I'm higher categories.

Also hurting is the fact that one of our biggest ever medalists (André Brasil) was recently considered ineligible for Paralympic swimming which has ended his career.

Only two swimming golds for China so far?

 

Was there some classification scandal recently uncovered or what?

Bit early to make any judgements after only around 20% of the programme but you've got to factor in the return of the Russians and the significant advances of countries like Italy.
