Good to see so many great bi-racial athletes breaking down the racial barriers in Japan (Naomi Osaka, Sani-Brown, Cambridge Asuka, among others).

I saw that he went to high school in Sendai though, so in a way, he's still repping Sendai! And I agree, it is really exciting to see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sallycinnamon Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 Is anyone watching Copa America? I like this tournament because I love South American football, and if I have time I watch it (but sadly most matches are at night in my timezone...) The group stages are over, and one of the non Conmebol teams in this tournament, Japan couldn't qualify to the next round. The quarterfinals will begin tomorrow with Brazil vs Paraguay, then Venezuela vs Argentina, Colombia vs Chile and Uruguay vs Peru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sallycinnamon Posted June 30, 2019 Author Share Posted June 30, 2019 The 1st Artistic Gymnastics Junior Worlds is this week, the individual apparatus finals are closing the competition today. I enjoy watching it, some of the gymnasts are as good as the seniors. A few days ago the oldest living Olympic Champion, 98-year old Agnes Keleti cheered for the gymnasts in the arena (she won 5 gold medals in the 1950s). How nice!

Sombreuil Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 Team Japan MAG extremely strong - took 1st 3 places all around. Did I recognise Oka’s coach from the winning team in Athens? Also Ukraine doing well which is good to see considering how little funding they get - Verniaev effect? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sallycinnamon Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 Roger wins the first set (7-6) against Rafa in the semifinal. Roger played a bit better than Rafa in the set but I was a bit worried in the beginning of the tie-break, Nadal was a bit better there. I'm rooting for Roger.

If you have Eurosport Player then you can watch it on that one? It's the first time since....forever that I'm watching it on Eurosport 1 (TV) because previously Eurosport didn't have the broadcast rights? And Federer wins the third set 6-3.

There are so many fake pages in google or fake twitter profiles that offer "links". It's 5-3 for Roger anyway, he can win this soon. He's playing better than Rafa.
