What medal for your country in Tokyo would be the most fun for you?

Recommended Posts

I'm sure I'm gonna cry for any Italian Olympic medal as usual...

 

and there are a lot of disciplines and events in my personal wish list of possible success...

 

but the answer to the original question is a no brainer: Rowing, men's Quadruple Sculls winning Gold in memoriam of Filippo Mondelli...

OK, I'll name two right now, this could change a lot.

 

:USA Torrie Huske in W 100m Fly - She just scared the WR last Monday, she's a local girl for me, from Arlington, VA and there is a special thing for me about Arlington and the 100 Fly.  1956, the first time this event was in the Olympics, the gold medal was won by Shelley Mann from Arlington, VA, and whose story is very inspirational.  Torrie, btw, her  mother is from China, she emigrated to the USA in 19991.

 

2 :USA  Sakura Kokumai W Kata - she is a long-shot, sure, but it has been chronicled in the US how she has been subject to anti-Asian harassment, and it would just be wonderful to see her win.

1. Equestrian : very challenging one we have a very good team and individuals in Showjumping but not with the quality of winning medals, it's always a dream for me that Egypt could someday win an Olympic medal in this sport 

 

2. MP : this sport always makes me sad in Olympics so a sweet revenge would be real fun, in the last 3 Olympics we have some very good pentathletes but they always choked in this fucking lucky equestrian again we go to the Olympics with really high hopes of winning a medal if we don't win this time then I would really stop following this sport for real ?

 

3. Judo : the 2nd most annoying sport for me after Modern Pentathlon, Very high hopes in London and Rio but came up with nothing now we are actually nothing so can we have a sweet revenge with a very wide outsider chance let's see 

 

4. Shooting : one of the sports that I always wanted for a medal at, it really upseted me in Rio when we had 2 5 place finishers and even Amy was doing great in men's skeet but a very awful 4th series with 22 destroyed his chances it would be real fun if he can win a medal after all his historic achievements last 7 years he really deserve to shine also a medal in men's or mixed trap would be real real fun 

 

5. Handball : the most upsetting sport in Egyptian history we are always close of doing something big but we choke in the last Meters this team really deserved a medal in our home WCH, I can't describe how much I'll be happy if we can win a medal in handball but I really doubt it 

 

6. Men's Sabre : I feel in Egyptian history we don't have outsiders that win medals it's great when those who are favorites to win really win some a medal in individual or even team Sabre would be real real fun

 

7. Men's Greco Roman Wrestling -67 kg : Kesho winning a medal would be real fun in a very tough competition before Corona this guy was among the very best in this weight category but now he's not in shape sorter really challenging one here 

 

8. Men's Shotput : very much outsider chance from Mostafa Amro but if it happens i would be over Skies 

.

Any medal actually for Egypt is very fun because simply we don't win many ?

Eh we don't have many choice - basically our medal chances are only from badminton and weightlifting.


Personally I'd be happy if Mohammad Ahsan & Hendra Setiawan can get the gold in badminton.

 

Any medal outside from those two sports will be greatly appreciated.

I'm a big heptathlon and decathlon fan in athletics. So a medal in either of this would be fantastic, but realistically only Niklas Kaul has a chance, as Carolin Schäfer has problems after her Corona vaccination. If my avatar (Gesa Krause in the steeplechase) medals, it would be great as well.

-Fencing is the sport that excites and amuses me the most, each medal here will always remain unique.

- Péni István, Rifle. I believe he has the potential and medal in this sport has been missing since 2004

-Modern Pentahlon: a gold in this competition has a "mythological" charm to me. Maybe not one of frontline sports to watch, but one of the best stories to remember.
