Possibility of a ' return match' with swimming star Hwang Seon-woo, 3-gold winner Kim Woo-min, Mokpo's golden water archery 3-gold winner Im Si-hyun, and Ansan from Gwangju

National team players who delivered golden impressions at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games are gathering in Jeonnam.

The 104th National Sports Festival will be held from the 13th to the 19th at 70 stadiums in Jeonnam, including Mokpo Stadium.

In this year's National Sports Festival, 28,477 athletes (19,279 athletes and 9,198 executives) from provinces and provinces applied to participate. 온라인카지노

Adding the 1,316 applicants from overseas Korean sports organizations, the total number is 29,793, the largest number ever.

Among them, the player who attracts the most attention is Hwang Seon-woo (Gangwon Provincial Office), the ‘signature’ of Korean swimming.

Hwang Sun-woo won six medals in Hangzhou, becoming the Korean athlete with the second most medals in a single Asian Games, following Park Tae-hwan, who won seven medals in Doha in 2006 and Guangzhou in 2010.

In particular, he won gold medals in the men's 200m freestyle, which aims for an Olympic medal, and in the men's 800m relay, a strategic event for Korean swimming.

The records are also plentiful.

In the 200m freestyle final, he broke his own Korean record (previously 1:44.42) with a time of 1:44.40, and in the 800m relay, he collaborated with his teammates to set a new Asian record of 7:01.73.

In Hangzhou, Hwang Sun-woo confirmed once again that the Asian stage is narrow.

Now, at the Mokpo Indoor Swimming Pool, where the swimming competitions of the National Sports Festival will be held, the challenge for a bigger stage called the 2024 Paris Olympics begins.

Sunwoo Hwang will compete in the 100m and 200m freestyle.

Attention is also focused on Kim Woo-min (Gangwon Provincial Office) in the middle and long distance swimming, who has won the most three gold medals among Korean male athletes.

Kim Woo-min teamed up with Hwang Sun-woo to win the 800m relay in Hangzhou, and also won gold medals in the 800m freestyle and 400m freestyle.

Following former Vice Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Choi Yoon-hee (1982 New Delhi Games) and Park Tae-hwan (Doha-2 Guangzhou Games), he became the third Korean swimmer to achieve the feat of winning three gold medals in a single competition.

Kim Woo-min breaks the water in the 400m and 1,500m freestyle.

Im Si-hyeon (Korea National Sports University), who at the age of 20 won three archery medals at the Asian Games for the first time in 37 years and was selected as the best male and female player (MVP) of the Korean Sports Association along with Kim Woo-min, pulls the bowstring at the Gwangju International Archery Range.

Im Si-hyeon swept gold medals in the mixed team event, women's team event, and women's individual event at the Hangzhou Asian Games.

In the women's individual event, she won the title with a 6-0 score over Ansan (Gwangju Women's University), a three-time Tokyo Olympic gold medalist and senior member of the national team.

Since Im Si-hyun and Ansan both participate in this National Sports Festival as college players, there is a possibility that a 'return match' will take place.

This will be a match that Ansan, who is from Gwangju and has always learned archery here, will never be able to back down from.

‘Smile Jumper’ Woo Sang-hyuk (Yongin City Hall), who won the men’s high jump silver medal after a spectacular match against his rival Mutaz Essa Barsim (Qatar) in Hangzhou, will also begin his challenge for the Olympics at the National Sports Festival.

You can enjoy the light-speed stabbing of the fencers who won the overall fencing championship at the Asian Games four times in a row at Haenam Woosul Dongbaek Gymnasium.

Oh Sang-wook (Daejeon Metropolitan City Hall), who won the men's saber double in Hangzhou, Koo Bon-gil, Kim Jeong-hwan (Korea Sports Promotion Foundation), and Kim Jun-ho (Hwaseong City Hall), who collaborated with him to win the team gold medal, will participate in the National Sports Festival.

Double women's epee winner Choi In-jeong (Gyeryong City Hall), women's epee team gold medalist Song Sera (Busan Metropolitan City Hall), and Yoon Ji-soo (Seoul City Hall), who won the women's saber individual gold medal, will also participate.

Toronto is Trying to Win the World Series for the First Time [sports]

Toronto is Trying to Win the World Series for the First Time in 30 Years... Is There Room for Ryu Hyun-jin?






Toronto, 'PS 18 consecutive losses' Minnesota and wild card starting on the 4th Local media "Ryu Hyun-jin will likely get a chance only if the starting lineup is injured."

The 2023 MLB postseason, which determines the 'champion' of American professional baseball's Major League (MLB), begins on the 4th (Korean time) with the American League (AL) and National League (NL) Wild Card Series (2 wins out of 3).

The matchups are Texas Rangers-Tampa Bay Rays, Toronto Blue Jays-Minnesota Twins (AL), Arizona Diamondbacks-Milwaukee Brewers, and Miami Marlins-Philadelphia Phillies (NL).

Toronto, which took third place in the AL wild card race, meets Minnesota, which is ranked first in the American League Central Division. 온라인카지노사이트

From Toronto's perspective, it would be less burdensome to face Minnesota, a 'weak fall baseball team', than to face its tough district rival, Tampa Bay.

Toronto, which joined MLB in 1977, won the World Series twice in 1992 and 1993.

I have a dark memory of failing to advance to the postseason for 21 consecutive seasons from 1994, the year after winning the World Series, to 2014.

From 2020, when Ryu Hyun-jin (36) was hired, to this year, he advanced to the postseason three times in four seasons, opening a second heyday.

In order to be recognized as a true 'heyday', a World Series championship trophy for the first time in 30 years is needed.

This season, the American League is in the 'Spring and Autumn Warring States Period' where there is absolutely no strong player, so any team is expected to be able to advance to the World Series if they catch the momentum.

Toronto's opponent, Minnesota, is a team suffering from a severe fall baseball jinx and is on an 18-game losing streak in the postseason, the longest in North American professional sports.

Minnesota's last postseason victory was in Game 1 of the 2004 AL Division Series (DS) against the New York Yankees, and they were eliminated after losing Games 2 to 4 of that series.

If Toronto passes Minnesota and passes the wild card, it will enter a best-of-five division series starting on the 8th with the Houston Astros, the team ranked first in the American League West and winning the World Series championship trophy last season.

The winner of the Texas-Tampa Bay wild card will play the division series with the Baltimore Orioles, first place in the American League East Division.

In the National League, the Arizona Diamondbacks-Milwaukee Brewers and the Miami Marlins-Philadelphia Phillies will play a wild card series.

The winner of Miami-Philadelphia will face the Atlanta Braves, the team ranked first in the National League East, the strongest candidate to win the World Series, and the winner of Arizona-Milwaukee will face the Los Angeles Dodgers, who are mentioned as Atlanta's only opponent.

The Championship Series (CS), a best-of-7 game, starts with the American League on the 16th, and the World Series, a best-of-7 game to determine the 'Legend of the Fall', opens on the 28th.

It is difficult for the ‘Korean Big Leaguer’ to expect active baseball action this fall.

Ryu Hyun-jin, whose four-year contract with Toronto ends this season, is expected to be left out of the 26-man wild card roster.

Local media predicts that Toronto will form a postseason starting lineup of Kevin Gozman, Chris Bassett, Jose Berrios, and Yusei Kikuchi.

MLB.com reported, “It will be difficult for fifth starter Ryu Hyun-jin to receive postseason pitching duties.”

However, if there is an injury to the existing starting lineup or if the team's slump continues, an opportunity may arise.

Yahoo Sports predicted, “Ryu Hyun-jin, who is efficient when making long throws, will finish the season without participating in the postseason unless there are injured or underperforming players in the starting lineup.”

The San Diego Padres, which includes the Korean duo of Kim Ha-seong (27) and Choi Ji-man (32), and the Pittsburgh Pirates of Bae Ji-hwan (24) both failed to advance to the postseason.

Roller Jeong Byeong-hee, Men’s EP 10,000m Gold Medal [sports]

[Asian Games] Roller Jeong Byeong-hee, Men’s EP 10,000m Gold Medal… Choi In-ho Bronze Medal




13 years since Son Geun-seong and Woo Hyo-sook in 2010... Yoo Garam, bronze medal in women's EP 10,000m

Korean roller skater Jeong Byeong-hee (Chungbuk Sports Council) won the gold medal in the 10,000m (excluding points + points (EP)) roller skating speed category at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games.

Byung-hee Jeong scored 19 points and won a gold medal in the men's speed skating EP 10,000m at the competition held at the Qiantang Roller Sports Center in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China on the 30th.

Second place was China's Jang Zhenhai (14 points), and Korea's Choi In-ho came in third (11 points) and won a bronze medal. 카지노사이트

It has been 13 years since the 2010 Guangzhou Games that a gold medal was won in the EP 10,000m event.

At that time, Son Geun-seong and Woo Hyo-sook won the men's and women's EP 10,000m side by side.

It was excluded from the official events at the 2014 Incheon Games and the 2018 Jakarta/Palembang Games.

EP 10,000m is a race format in which athletes who are ranked at a certain number of laps receive points while completing 50 laps around a 200m track, and those who are at the very end are eliminated.

In the lap after the bell rings, the players in 1st and 2nd place receive 2 and 1 point, respectively, and in the last lap, the players in 1st to 3rd place receive 3 to 1 points each.

The scores are added up to determine the ranking.

Initially, in roller skating, a golden sprint was expected for Jeong Cheol-won and Choi Kwang-ho, who will participate in the 1,000m sprint event to be held on the 1st of next month.

However, Byung-hee Jeong beat strong competitors from China and Taiwan and gave the Korean roller the first gold medal of this tournament.

Byung-hee Jeong engaged in a search game at the beginning of the game, then increased his speed in earnest from the middle and took a strategy of scoring points in the second half.

Byung-hee Jeong, who took the lead, did not lag even in the last lap and was the first to reach the finish line with a time of 15 minutes 39.857 seconds, earning the most points (3 points), beating second place Jang Jeon-hai by 5 points.

Colleague Choi In-ho, who ran the track with him, took third place on the podium, beating Taiwan's Go Fu-ssang (10 points) and Jeon Yan-jeong (7 points).

In-ho Choi competed for the lead until the middle of the game, blocking Chinese and Taiwanese players from scoring, and assisted Byeong-hee Jeong in the second half.

In the women's speed skating EP 10,000m, Yoo Garam (Anyang City Hall) came in third place (14 points) and added a medal.

The gold and silver medals went to Taiwan's Shibeiyou (21 points) and Yang Huozhen (18 points).

Yuga Lam competed for the lead in the early stages, but she gradually fell behind the Taiwanese players and fell further from the lead.

Lee Seul (Daegu City Hall) competed with 10 points, but she finished in 4th place and was not in the medal range.
