China edges Russia to take early lead in men’s gymnastics

TOKYO (AP) — China sprinted to the lead in men’s gymnastics qualifying, putting on a clinic inside the nearly empty Ariake Gymnastics Centre as it aims to return to the top of the sport.

The Chinese’s total of 262.061 — fueled by four brilliant sets on parallel bars — edged out Russia’s 261.945 in the first of three qualifying subdivisions Saturday. China is attempting to bounce back after slipping to bronze in Rio de Janeiro five years ago and coming in second to the Russians at the 2019 world championships.

Reigning world champion Nikita Nagornyy of Russia grabbed the early lead in all-around qualifying, putting together a steady 87.897, just ahead of China’s Xiao Ruoteng and Sui Wei.

Russian Artur Dalaloyan also assured himself of a spot in next week’s all-around finals with a total of 85.597, remarkable considering that Dalaloyan is competing on a surgically repaired left Achilles torn at the European championships in April.

MEDAL ALERT

Hou Zhihui has won China’s second gold medal of the Tokyo Olympics with a commanding showing in the women’s 49-kilogram weightlifting category.

Hou lifted a total 210kg, 3kg short of her world record, to take gold ahead of Indian lifter Chanu Saikhom Mirabai on 202. It was India’s first Olympic silver in weightlifting.

Indonesia took bronze as Windy Cantika Aisah lifted a total of 194kg.

Jourdan Delacruz of the United States was third after the snatch portion of the contest but failed on all three or her lifts in the clean and jerk.

 
All Badminton players and double still past the first game

Indonesian wins against Australia

 
Unfortunately, Saina Nehwal who was a bronze medallist in London 2012 olympics and K Srikanth who had reached No. 1 rank for some time haven't qualified for the Olympics. However, we are expecting a medal from PV Sindhu.

And today, our men's doubles pair of Reddy and Shetty defeated World No.3 doubles pair from Chinese Taipei in the group stage. So they are the dark horses as well for a medal in badminton.

Yup, the competition is getting tougher, sometimes having better range doesnt mean the Gold medals are already in hand.

For Female single Indonesia only send 1 player, Mariska Tunjung, Word Junior Winner. We have 3 strong female single, but only her is eligible to compete in Olympic.
