 Good effort?

 

Two sub 10 shots at critical moments? We are too soft on our athletes. He was the only one who hit anything less than 10

[Number]

How many more heart breaks are in store for us ?

[Gollum]

Mentally too weak, again fell apart in finishing stage.

The other guy went first and got 10.7. The crowd reaction plays a part. Recovering that gap was tough

[Gollum]

Heartbreak again

There's a World Champ and the World Record holder in this group, was always an uphill task. Those guys will invariably step up in crunch moments

 

Olympic Record for the Chinese guy who wins Gold

Disappointment aside I feel for the people who pick up this sport and become this good. At this stage this is a superhuman level competition.

Very impressive overall. 

[Sandz]

what’s next? Can someone post a timetable for the day?

[MediumPacer]

Do we have any chance in a proper sport?

I feel sorry for Chinese athletes regardless of what they win. Their government treats them as Commodity and they're disregarded when not competitive anymore. Many Chinese olympians suffer from extreme poverty in middle & old age.
