A three second difference is only translating into six points. It doesn't matter much. My guess is that UIPM prefers it this way because swimming is the least interesting, most consistent event of the four. There can't be any drama in pentathlon swimming as everyone is just racing with their own PB/SB, unlike in fencing, riding or the laser run.

The bonus round is even more meaningless than swimming, it won't change much in the overall ranking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, seeing outdoor fencing is kind of neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hckošice 13,243 Posted August 6, 2021 #38 Share Posted August 6, 2021 Just a reminder. Slovak official (Vlladimir Miller) of all person is the one who picked and selected the horses for the Modern Pentathlon. So you know who to blame. dcro and Werloc 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
