Olympics 2024 - discussion thread

Maybe something wrong with the equipments? Lots of gymnasts had a bad dismount on Men's Horizontal bar, just like lots of gymnasts fell off the balance beam.

After all the underperformance by the gymnastics team, just makes me appreciate Pan Zhanle even more. Biggest moment under huge pressure and delivers gold and world record. Then helps the team get gold in the fastest ever freestyle split. We need others to have Pan Zhanle mentality. He embraces the pressure and expectation instead of weighing him down.

I found this link from Reddit that is a prediction and analysis of China's gold. Any thoughts on this?

I guess worse than Tokyo coz more chokers. But as long as it's not 2016 levels then I'm ok.
2016 was just one huge ass embarrassment. I don't even know what went wrong there.

China is not beating USA until it conquers swimming.

China has a chance for gold in the women's cycling. They are currently rank no.1 in the world before this Olympics and are in good form too.

It seems Italy has a good chance over US

Italy won 45 over 44 usa

Just as China lost 3 possible golds, US did as well.

US flopped in skeet team, and Simone Biles flopped in balance beam and floor

Chinese reporter interviewing Pan Zhanle right after the Medley Relay,

Pan: "Qin said like he's not satisfied with his performance today. Well, the race is over and we're the champions. It should be others that are not satisfied, not us."
