I don't understand why they would give a random advantage in overtime in fencing. That's weird.

I'm sorry for the Korean fencer, but every decision would have felt wrong. They should show the milliseconds in the future.


they redid the rules when the matches were 45 minutes of standing around.
i dont really like the advantage rule, though.

It would not make sense to show miliseconds since there is still a person sitting at the table, pressing buttons when starting and stopping the watch.

Not surprises there. It's obvious to all but the most ignorant.

it still makes sense because you wouldnt have the problem of a possibly infinitely long last second.

Well maybe in about a year or 10 they will find out if she has used doping. But for now they won't find out so it cool that she swam that fast.

So why wasn't there much controverse about Usain Bolt WR 100m and 200m?

I disagree, Spectators would at least know what the timekeeper is doing.

Human error is human error. I think the guy with the watch forgot to start the time. You need rules for these types of things since it will happen again, milliseconds or not.

Usain Bolt is running much faster than anyone even though most of them used doping who ran before him and didn't come even close to his time on the 100m and 200m. So why is no one wondering if he is using?

Perfectly reasonable explanation for Shiwen's dramatic and sudden increase in performance- she obviously went super saiyan.

Because Bolt has a normal improvement curve. Dude is just fast- he's not randomly twice as fast.
