DR has won two golds: Tae Kwan Do and Weightlifting (Yudelkis Contreras, the 2003 medalist, at 53 kgs set three Pam Am records yesterday with 95, 112 and a 207 total lift. More than twice her weight in one event..."envi?n" I think...
The kid in the Tae Kwan Do bead world ranked players. Each is supposed to get RD$400,000 as a prize.
DR also got silver in Tae Kwon do and a bronze. And a bronze in weightlifting.
More should come in Table Tennis, Judo.
Baseball is a fiasco, of course, with a team of very old "has beens" and "never weres"....waste of money for sure.
Women's softball team went 0-5 at the World Championships were Wud is umpiring....lost yesterday to China 0-3....However, they might have a chance to medal if the US and Canada do not send their best, or they might get a bronze if they do....Nobody can beat the current US team...The first three games were ended early and only the Japanese team took them to 7 innings....
Be interesting to hear Wud's opinion of the team.
Stay tuned.
