Still all to play for. Italy is now must win for them.

ROC and Turkey will definitely lose points as they face each other in the finale.

yes ..and win by 3-0 or 3-1...

but from the remaining 2 matches. china at most tie at 7 points with turkey......from what i cn see...might be wrong....then will go into tiebreaker....really is just a Sliver of hope.....

unless russia gals lose to USA and turkey big time ...and china win italy and argentina big time.......then china will have 7 points and 4th spot, Russia 5 points and 5th spot.

haha..fight for miracle..like rio 2016 or worse.

His nickname "Snakeman" lol :D

Table tennis commentator brings excitement to Olympic games

It’s safe to say Adam Bobrow is one of the most colorful commentators at the Tokyo Olympics. And when you see him, you’ll understand why.

“I love table tennis and I want to help the world love it.”

Bobrow is an announcer as well as a competitive table tennis player.

“As a commentator, I don’t see my job as just calling the games, I create the story. I get to find the context, I get to help people care about the athletes and get them emotionally invested.”

Bobrow’s love of the sport started when he was a kid.

“My dad played ping pong with me on the driveway and he did things that I never imagined possible.”

And now Bobrow is redefining what’s possible. His nickname, “Snakeman,” comes from one of his signature moves which are almost as memorable as his signature look.

“Visually, colors to me, vibrant colors excite me, they make me feel happy, a sign of life and friendliness.”

All of that translates into the way he calls the action and he hopes to capture the attention of the world one set and one match at a time.

“For the rest of the world, it’s once every four years, they’re flipping through the channels and they’re like ‘woah, ping pong’s in the Olympics, when did that start?’”

I think NOC must mandate table tennis girls to wear short skirt while playing to increase fan base... :(

Tomorrow morning so many events to watch

Athletics starting , swimming finals, volleyball mens
Finally Athletics - the true and oldest disciplines in the historical Olympic Games

The ancient Games included running, long jump, shot put, javelin, boxing, pankration and equestrian events
The ancient Olympic Games were initially a one-day event until 684 BC, when they were extended to three days. In the 5th century B.C., the Games were extended again to cover five days.
