The South Korean women’s epee fencing team will be chasing two rabbits Tuesday at the Paris Olympics: their second straight medal and a measure of redemption.

Choi In-jeong, Kang Young-mi, Song Se-ra and Lee Hye-in have been brought back as a team for Paris, with Choi coming out of retirement to rejoin her three teammates following their run to the silver medal at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics.

Kang, Song and Lee each competed in the individual event Saturday, but they were all eliminated early without sniffing a medal. Kang and Lee both lost their first matches, in the round of 32, while Song, the only Korean ranked inside the top 10 at world No. 7, was gone in the round of 16.

Song was so crushed with her defeat that she was reduced to tears afterward. But she vowed she would cry tears of joy after the team event, which is set to begin with the quarterfinals at 2:20 p.m. Tuesday at Grand Palais in the French capital.

South Korea will take on the home team France, led by the individual silver medalist from Saturday, Auriane Mallo.

In the swimming pool at Paris La Defense Arena, the men’s 4×200-meter freestyle relay team will compete in the heats, where they will try to be among the top eight teams bound for the final.

The team will feature two world champions, Kim Woo-min (400m freestyle) and Hwang Sun-woo (200m freestyle). South Korea has never won a relay swimming medal in Olympic Games.

Also Tuesday, judoka Lee Joon-hwan will be in action in the men’s -81 kilograms. Dubbed the “Korean Lightning” by the International Judo 스포츠 Federation thanks to his speed, Lee has two world championships bronze medals to his name and will be going for his first Olympic medal at Champ-de-Mars Arena in Paris.

South Korea was on target for two gold medals at the Paris Olympics on Sunday, raising its total to three after just two days of competition.

South Korea edged out China 5-4 in a nervy shoot-off in the final of the women’s archery team event, as Jeon Hun-young, Nam Su-hyeon and Lim Si-hyeon brought their country its 10th consecutive Olympic gold in that event.

The women’s team competition was added to the Olympics in 1988 in Seoul, and Korea, the preeminent archery powerhouse, remains undefeated.

South Korea won the first two sets against China, opening up a 4-0 lead and moving within a point of clinching the gold. But China battled 한국을 back to tied the score at 4-4 and force the shoot-off.

Jeon and Lim each hit a 10 — both of their 10s were confirmed after a review by the target judge — and South Korea outscored China 29-27 in the shoot-off.

South Korea’s first gold medal of Sunday came from shooting, with Oh Ye-jin beating her teammate Kim Ye-ji in the women’s 10-meter air pistol.

Oh, 19, set an Olympic record with 243.2 points, 1.9 points ahead of Kim, to reach the top of the podium in her Olympic debut.

This was the first gold-silver finish by South Korea in an Olympic shooting event in 12 years.

Batum, Dunn, Bamba, Clippers fill bench

The Clippers agreed to a two-year, $9.6 million contract with Batum. It is not known whether the option will be included, but it is presumed to be a full guarantee. The Clippers spend a lot. It is expected to use exceptions to catch him.

Additional reporter Chris Haynes informed that the Clippers also had Chris Dunn (guard, 191 cm, 93 kg). The contract is not yet known. The Clippers are also expected to break up with Russell Westbrook and are believed to be pursuing signing and trade. If Dunn’s contract goes ahead as expected, he will also have a good backup guard. 메이저놀이터

Batum was traded from the Clippers to the Philadelphia 76ers early last season. He was expected to play as a key six man for the Clippers, but had to change his uniform as he failed to avoid the trade. Originally wanting to end his career with the Clippers, Batum signed a multi-year contract with the Clippers this time, and is expected to continue his role after the 2024 Olympics.

He played in 60 games for the Clippers and Philadelphia last season. He played 25.5 minutes per game, scoring 5.3 points (.453.395.714), 4.1 rebounds, and 2.1 assists. The average score has continued to decline over the past three seasons. He has mostly played as a backup power forward in recent years. He has played more than one 3-pointer on average with a success rate of about 40 percent.

Dunn played in 66 games for the Utah Jazz last season. He averaged 18.9 minutes and scored 5.4 points (.470.369.688), 2.9 rebounds, and 3.8 assists and one steal. He also played 32 games as a starter, but his overall performance was poor compared to the previous season. In the 2022-2023 season, he scored 13.2 points per game, but played in only 22 games. He played in many games last season for the first time in a long time.

Bamba is also heading to Hollywood. He played for the Philadelphia Phillies last season. He had to start as a third center, but he had many limitations. He was called by the Clippers as much as he could help him physically. The Clippers have been struggling with backup centers. As Mason Plumlee (Finnix), who was with the Clippers until the last season, is moving, they have decided to secure Bamba, which does not have a lot of money.

“The son of LeBron,” Bronny said, “The pressure has increased, but…”I can overcome it”

According to the Associated Press on the 3rd (Korea time), Bronny expressed his feelings about joining the team at a press conference held at the Los Angeles Lakers Training Complex in El Segundo, California.

Bronny was selected by the Lakers as the 55th pick in the second round at the “2024 NBA Draft” held at ESPN Seaport District Studios in Manhattan, New York on the 28th of last month.

Bronny said, “I’ve seen stories on social networking services (SNS) or the Internet that I don’t deserve an opportunity,” adding, “But nothing has changed because I’ve been through these things all my life.”

“The pressure has increased (since joining the Lakers), but I can overcome it,” he added.

Bronny also stressed that he did not participate in the NBA draft to play with his father, LeBron.

“I want to make my name known on my own (not my father’s son),” he said. “I want to join the team and do my job and improve every day,” he said, expressing his determination to stand out in the NBA with his skills, not his father’s halo. 동행복권파워볼

New manager J.J. Ledick, who recently took the helm of the Lakers, said, “Broni came here because of his hard work,” suggesting that he was not chosen because he was a LeBron son.

Meanwhile, LeBron reportedly watched Bronny’s press conference from the back of the conference hall.

If LeBron plays for the Lakers next season and the father and son play at the same time, the NBA will complete a new history.

A Linked School? Daegu Elite Basketball with Pyramid Structure

The current team was built by the interest of the leader and the efforts of the players. However, nothing is more important than the supply and demand of players in order to maintain the team’s power. There is a basketball team among Gyeseong, who uses a gym with Gyeseong High School, but unlike any region, Daegu does not have the concept of a related school. Daegu Elite Basketball is operated in a pyramid structure. 동행복권파워볼

Coach Nam Jeong-su said, “Daegu elite basketball has three elementary schools and two middle schools. You don’t just get a certain school when you go on to college. It’s built in a pyramid scheme.” Coach Kim Jong-wan also said, “We scout each other. Elementary and middle schools are all different for third graders now. It is definitely comfortable if it is operated as a linked school, but if a grade collapses, the whole school could be shaken. The pyramid structure can be solid to compensate for these shortcomings. The strengths and weaknesses are clear.”

Daegu Elite Elementary School has Dorim Elementary School, Chilgok Elementary School, and Haecho, while middle schools have Chimsan Middle School and Gyeseong Middle School. Unless it is a special case, players who started basketball in Daegu will gather at Gyeseong High School. When this problem of player supply and demand is resolved, the next financial concern is. You need money to run anything.

“We have received a lot of support from the education office and the sports association,” coach Kim Jong-wan said. “Actually, it is more difficult than before, but it is easier because the principal Park Hyun-dong is providing full support first. The principal is also a former member of the basketball team at Gyeseong High School, which gives a great boost to the basketball team. I am grateful.” In addition, the annual alumni association of Gyeseong High School is giving a boost to the basketball team.

Coach Kim Jong-wan said, “When participating in a training or competition, the school, education office, and sports association are funded. Schools and alumni associations recently changed vehicles for the basketball team for the safety of the players. There was an event in May. While they are busy doing it once or twice a year, they get to know each other face-to-face. Although they don’t win a championship, everyone was happy because their team showed good results in the first half of the year. As we still have competitions left, I really want to win.” What’s left in Kyesung High School is the title of “winning.” Coach Nam Jeong-su also said, “I hope this year will serve as an opportunity to win.”

Shin Sang-hoon, president of WKBL, took office, saying, “Efforts to expand the base of basketball.”

Shin Sang-hoon (76), president of the Korean Women’s Basketball Federation (WKBL), who will lead women’s professional basketball for the next three years, has officially taken office.

At the inauguration ceremony held at the Rivera Hotel Cheongdam in Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the 3rd, President Shin Sang-hoon said, “We will make efforts to create a competitive league where fans come and expand the base of women’s basketball.”

In his inaugural address, President Shin Sang-hoon said, “We will increase the number of spectators through differentiated events and marketing activities,” and added, “We will further expand the Asian quarter system in the future to transform it into a challenging league with an international sense.”

“Expanding the player base is a mid- to long-term task that all game organizations face in common,” he added. “We will create an environment that gives hope and opportunity to young players by focusing on sustainable women’s basketball base development projects with six clubs.”

He also vowed to take the lead in enhancing the social value of women’s basketball and promoting the importance of women’s sports. 안전한 카지노사이트

Governor Shin Sang-hoon joined Shinhan Bank in 1982 and served as managing director of Shinhan Financial Group, president of Shinhan Bank, and CEO of Shinhan Financial Group. Shinhan Bank’s basketball team was founded in 2004 when Governor Shin Sang-hoon was president of the bank, and has emerged as a prestigious team representing women’s professional basketball since 2007, winning six consecutive league titles.

The control of ‘Hallelujah’ is out of reach…Slovenia Defeats Saric’s Croatia by 16 Points

Hallelujah Luka Doncic’s dominance was out of reach. 슬롯사이트 순위

Slovenia lost 92-108 and 16 points in the first group match of the final qualifying round for the 2024 Paris Olympics at Peace and Friendship Stadium in Piraeus, Greece on the 3rd (Korea time).

They even played Doncic in this match, which was Slovenia’s superiority, but Croatia’s power was great.

Doncic made efforts to secure 26 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists, and triple-double, but failed to prevent his loss. Clemen Prefelich (19 points and two assists), Blatko Chanchar (12 points and four rebounds), and Josh Nebo (12 points and nine rebounds) also helped, but could not handle Croatia’s firepower.

Croatia’s ace Dario Saric shone. He faced Doncic with 19 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists, and a triple-double.

And Goran Filipovic (21 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists), Ivica Zubacic (18 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists), Danko Brankovic (15 points, 2 rebounds), and Mario Hezonya (12 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists) defeated Slovenia.

Slovenia will next face New Zealand. They are also tough opponents, but chances are low that Slovenia will lose. If so, chances are high that the team will come in second place in the group. If Greece, which is on the other side, beats the Dominican Republic and Egypt to rank first, it will meet in the semifinals.

Greece is in the best position with Janis Antetokounmpo at the final preliminary match to be held in the country. For Slovenia, the team met Greece relatively early due to its loss to Croatia.

Meanwhile, the Dominican Republic won 90-77 against Egypt. Carl Anthony Towns will not participate in the event, but showed off his outstanding performance led by Jean Montero (17 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 assists). Egypt couldn’t laugh at the weakened power under the basket as Asem Marei announced his absence.

Spain easily defeated Lebanon with all 12 players scoring goals. Santiago Aldama led the way with 17 points and nine rebounds. And Jaime Pradhya (14 points, three rebounds, three steals), Dario Brijuela (12 points, four assists), and Usman Garuba (15 points and eight rebounds) were active players.

Lithuania won 96-84 against Mexico by Josh Ibarra. Italy defeated Bahrain by 114-53, 61 points.

Buddy Hield, will Clay Tamson be a replacement? …”GSW enters serious negotiations with PHI”

Shams Karania, a reporter for the local media “The Athletic,” reported on the 3rd (Korea time) that the Golden State Warriors entered serious negotiations to recruit Shooter Hield. “We are having in-depth discussions with the Philadelphia 76ers.”

A plan has been announced to fill the vacancy of top shooter Tamson (Dallas) with Hield. Hield, who started his career with the New Orleans Pelicans as the sixth pick in the first round of the 2016 NBA Draft, is also one of the best shooter in the league.

Having played in 632 games, Hield has attempted 7.6 3-pointers per game and hit 3.0 on average, boasting a high 3-pointer success rate of 40 percent. Having started this season in the Indiana Pacers uniform, Hield was traded to the Philadelphia Phillies in the middle of the season.

Hield, who played for the two teams, played 84 games in the regular season and averaged 12.1 points and 3-pointers for 25 minutes and 7 seconds with an average of 2.6 (38.6 percent success rate) and 3.2 rebounds and 2.8 assists in the playoffs. He played 12 minutes and 7 seconds in four games with an average of 5.5 points and 1.3 rebounds. He had to wait and see Philadelphia fail in the first round.

Although he has had such an ups and downs season, he is a scorer with scoring ability that can explode at any time, so if he is recruited, he is expected to help Stephen Curry and help him greatly from the outside.

Golden State, which lost Tamson, is having a busy offseason, signing a contract with Kyle Anderson following the acquisition of Di Anthony Melton. Local media such as “The Athletic” and “ESPN” reported that Golden State has also expressed interest in Lowry Makanen (Utah).

Will Hield fill Thamson’s vacancy? The outcome of the negotiations between the Golden State and the Philadelphia Phillies will draw much attention. 실시간 바카라사이트

‘Near to Reclaim’ Runs Home Run for Two Days in a row

Ohtani started as the second batter (nominated) against the Texas Rangers in the “2024 Major League Baseball (MLB)” at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles on the 13th (Korea time) and hit a home run from his first at bat in the bottom of the first inning.

Ohtani hit a homer over the right fence after hitting a low slider from Texas starter John Gray. It was his 17th of this season. The speed of the homerun is 169 kilometers and the flying distance 129 meters.

It was his second homer in two consecutive games. At a game against Texas on the previous day, Ohtani hit Grant Anderson’s fastball in the bottom of the sixth inning to make a homer that stretches to the right-center field.

Ohtani, who has not had a home run for 10 games since his 13th home run of the season against Cincinnati on the 18th of last month, hit three home runs in June alone, igniting the competition for home run king again. The gap with Aaron Judge (25 home runs, New York Yankees), who is ranked first in the American League (AL), is wide, but only one difference from Marcell Ozuna (Atlanta Braves), who is ranked first in the NL. 메이저놀이터

Ozuna hit 40 home runs in the NL last season, and Ohtani became the AL home run king with 44.

Despite Ohtani’s first solo home run, the Dodgers lost 1-3 in the top of the fifth inning after allowing Corey Seager, who played for starter Walker Buehler, to turn the game around.
