The last edition of the Summer Games were quite atypical, since Tokyo 2020 took place a year later than originally scheduled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Even when the International Olympic Committe (IOC) managed to organize it in 2021, no spectators were allowed.
Therefore, fans have been waiting for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/olympics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Paris 2024</a> as the summer in the French capital is gathering large crowds for the different events. People know there are many sports and athletes in every Olympics, but how many are participating in this year’s edition?

Tokyo 2020: Why is Lionel Messi not playing for Argentina at the Olympics? - Bolavip US

After finishing Wimbledon, the best <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/tennis-t157006" target="_blank" rel="noopener">tennis</a> players are already in Tokyo to compete for the gold in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/tokyo-2020-olympics-schedule-key-dates-and-how-to-watch-20210714-0014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olympic Games 2020</a>. However, half of the Top 20 male players are not going to compete at the Olympics. Among them, is World No 3, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/rafael-nadal-t148640" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rafael Nadal.</a>
The Spanish is not only a 20-time Grand Slam winner, as he also tasted Olympic glory in 2008, when he won the gold medal against Nicolas Kiefer in Beijing. He is the only member of the ‘Big 3’ with gold in singles, as Roger Federer has won silver (London 2012) and gold in doubles (2008), while Novak Djokovic has bronze (2008).
Nadal played the first part of the season, winning two titles on clay in Rome and Barcelona. However, after losing in the semifinals of Roland Garros against Novak Djokovic, the Spaniard decided not to compete at Wimbledon nor the Olympic Games. Here, check out why he withdrew from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/olympic-games-t156666" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tokyo 2020.</a>

<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-12"> </div>

<h2>Tokyo 2020: Why is Nadal not playing at the Olympics?</h2>
Two weeks before Wimbledon, Rafael Nadal explained in a series of tweets that he decided not to play in London and Tokyo. Nadal said that he needed time to recuperate after he played the clay season in its entirety.
Also, the Spanish explained that his goal was to “prolong” his career as much as possible. “They have been two months of great effort and the decision I take is focused on looking at the mid and long term,” he wrote on Twitter.

Without playing Wimbledon and the Olympic Games, Nadal will have plenty of time to rest ahead of the US Open, which starts in September. With an Olympic gold already in his stats, it seems like the Spanish has his mind on the record of Grand Slams that he shares with Djokovic and Federer.

Prior to Río 2016, Neymar was close to succeeding with his country in London 2012 but came up short in the gold medal match. That’s why four years laterwhen he had to choose between the Olympics or <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/copa-america" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Copa America</a>, he decided to fight for the onlyhonor Brazil was missing.

Tokyo 2020: Why won't Neymar play for Brazil at the Olympics?

Thousands of athletes have arrived in Tokyo to fulfil their dream of competing in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/olympic-games-t156666" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olympic Games 2020.</a> However, six Polish swimmers won’t have the chance to be part of the compitition, that start on <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/tokyo-2020-olympics-schedule-key-dates-and-how-to-watch-20210714-0014.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">July 24,</a>despite having traveled with the team. The reason? Poland sent too many <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/tokyo-2020-swimming-events-at-summer-olympics-20210718-0007.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">swimmers</a> to the Games.
The PZP, Poland’s swimming federation, was forced to send six athletes home after bringing 23 swimmers to the competition. The problem is that FINA, swimming’s international governing body, rules that the number of participants has to be 17.
After the initial shock, the athletes have reacted and the majority of the swimming team is asking for the resignation of the PZP directive board. Pawel Slominski, president of the Polish federation, said he understood the reaction. But how did this happen?

<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-34"> </div>

<h2>Why did six Polish swimmers have to leave Tokyo 2020?</h2>
According to the statement from Slominski, the mistake was due to the “desire to allow as many players and coaches as possible to take part in the Games”. As Yahoo Sport reports, the country had several relay teams qualify for the Olympics through the regular processes, but they also sent six “B standard” swimmers to compete in individual events.
Slominski also explained that the federation didn’t have “clear guidance” from the FINA if the six “B standard” swimmers were qualified for the Games or not until July 14, where the athletes have already flown to Tokyo. “I express great regret, sadness and bitterness about the situation,” said in the statement.

Reuters reports that the swimmers who had to left the team were Alicja Tchórz, Bartosz Piszczorowicz, Aleksandra Polańska, Mateusz Chowaniec, Dominika Kossakowska and Jan Holub. Tchórz, who competed at the 2012 and 2016 Olympics, expressed her anger on social media.
“Imagine dedicating five years of your life and striving for another start at the most important sporting event, giving up your private life and work, sacrificing your family and your dedication results in a total flop,” she wrote on Facebook. Mateusz Chowaniec also wrote on Instagram that the situation was a “nightmare.”.

Michael Phelps is the ultimate Summer Olympic gold medalist who has set records that can never be broken: most Olympic medals (28), most Olympic gold (23), the most gold medals in one edition(eight at the 2008 Beijing Games), as well as most worldswimming records(39).
Larisa Latynina was a leading gymnastical force in the Soviet Union throughout the three Olympic Games from 1956 to 1964. Her dance experience provided her a dominating yet elegant role throughout her routines as she burst into the scene with four gold medalsduring her first Games in Melbourne.
While in the early 1960s, Latynina dominated female gymnastics, during the decade Boris Shakhlin did so in men’s gymnastics. The 1960 Olympics in Rome were his highest point, as he scored fourgolds, twosilvers, and one bronze. Their compatriot Nikolai Adrianov, meanwhile, shone at the Montreal Games in 1976, also grabbingfour golds, two silvers, and one bronze.

Tokyo 2020: Simone Biles and the US women's Olympic gymnastics team

Tokyo 2020: Simone Biles and the US women's Olympic gymnastics team - Bolavip US

A large range of sports have beenfeatured in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/olympic-games-t156666" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Summer Olympic Games</a> all-around itshistory.Others, though, in spite of their popularity and great efforts, havenot managed to get included inthe Games.
One of them is <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/tokyo-2020-most-popular-sports-not-in-the-summer-olympics-20210715-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Chess</a>, whichis regarded as one of the most ancient games in mankind’s history. Whilst ideas about where and how Chess came from are certainly diverse, it can never be denied that it is one of the most intellectual games.
A single game of chess may deplete a person fully from a complicated calculation to identifying patterns. Chess has failed to secure a spot in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/tokyo-2020-all-time-olympic-games-medals-by-country-20210714-0012.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olympics</a> despite being one of the most played games in the world. The chess’ leading governing body, International Chess Federation (FIDE) hasattemptedto include itseveral times already, but without any success.
<h2>Has chess ever been in the Olympics?</h2>

</div>
Chess was recognized as a sport in the 1920s by theInternational Olympic Committee(IOC). However,Chess is not widely regarded as a sport, unfortunately, because it doesn’t include actual athleticism. By definition, a sport is an activity in which the body is subjected to some form of physical activity. Thus, many people believe that “physical fitness”is lacking in Chess.
Chess demands the player to be above their mental strength, yet playing a match, theydon’t engage in any intense physical exercise. In 1999 when it came closest to being included in the Olympics.The idea was for Chess to be included in the Paris 1924 Games but it was eventually excluded, it was difficult to distinguishamateur from professional players. It took 75 years for Chess to be relevant to the Olympic authorities,as, in 1999, it was closest tobeing included in the Olympics.
Furthermore, the IOC have also acknowledged the World Chess Federation (FIDE). The 2014 Chess Olympiad, held in Norway, included players from around 170 nations fighting for top honors. In order to guarantee that they comply with the requirements of the IOC, FIDEregularly does doping tests on its players.

Tokyo 2020: Why is chess not an Olympic sport? - Bolavip US

The tenth race of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/f1-2021-schedule-find-here-formula-1-calendar-of-every-grand-prix-races-dates-drivers-results-and-standings-20210318-0017.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Formula OneWorld Championship,</a> the British GP, is going to take place today, July 18 in the Silverstone circuit. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/max-verstappen-t157187" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Max Verstappen</a> claimed his fifth pole of the year, after beating <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/lewis-hamilton-t154226" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lewis Hamilton</a>, who finished second, in the first ever Sprint qualifying race.
Today’s race will bring another chapter of the Hamilton-Verstappen rivalry. On Friday, Hamilton was the fastest of the qualifying for the Sprint. But that didn’t help him on Saturday, as Verstappen made the better getaway. Valtteri Bottas, on the other hand, will start third.
The three of them also won points for the Driver’s championship. Verstappen, who also is atop of the standings, won three, Hamilton two and Bottas one. After two days of thrill and excitement with the new format, the British GP promises a great ending.

<h2>2021 British Grand Prix: Storylines</h2>
While the attention was rightfully in the fight for the top between Hamilton and Verstappen, other drivers also enjoyed the new format for qualifying. Charles Leclerc of Ferrari has had a solid weekend so far, and will start fourth tomorrow. His teammate, Carlos Sainz, however, didn’t have the same luck, as he collided with George Russell on the first lap but the Spanishdid a great job to recover.
Meanwhile, Sergio Perez had to retire from the race after spinning out of the track. Fernando Alonso, of Alpine, also had an impressive start in the Sprint and will start seventh after starting in the P11. Kimmi Raikkonen also won big with the new format, jumping from P17 to P13.
Sainz, Russell and Sebastian Vettelwere under investigation. While Russell received a three-place grid penaltyfor causing the collision that pushed Sainz out of the race in the first lap, the Ferrari driver also has been called to the Stewards after joining the track in an unsafe manner. Vettel, on the other hand, has to explain why he didn’t follow the instructions of the race director in the practice.

British Grand Prix 2021: Predictions, odds and how to watch the tenth F1 date in the US today - Bolavip US

To speak of the past and present of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/tokyo-2020-us-womens-olympic-gymnastics-team-20210718-0004.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gymnastics</a> is to remember Nadia Comaneci of Romania at the 1976 Montreal Olympic Games, and to be surprised by the current situation of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/tokyo-2020-profiles-simone-biles-height-weight-and-net-worth-20210721-0020.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Simone Biles</a> of theUnited States, who sealed her ticket to participate in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/olympic-games-t156666" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tokyo 2020</a> and at 24 years of age, she is shaping up to be one of the best gymnasts in history.
One has undoubted supremacy and the other an accuracy which no one couldmatch.Both have spent their Olympic careers competing against time and themselves rather than against the competition. Comparisons between the two are inevitable, however, each gymnast responds to a time in which the sport has evolved.
While <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/simone-biles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Biles</a> will aim to become the firstin women’s gymnasts in more than 50years to become anOlympic champion for the second time in a rowwhen she walks in front of the world in Tokyo, let’s take a look at here legacy and the one ofNadia Comaneci’s from another period of time.
<h2>Simone Biles: The greatest Olympic gymnast of all time?</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20210715_BUS_173037_simone_biles_of_the_us_competes_on_vault_in_2019__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_85a3379d.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption> Simone Biles of the US competes on the vault in 2019. (Getty) </figcaption></figure>
</div>
After appearing at her first OlympicGames in Rio 2016, Simone Biles has managed to enter the category of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/sports/olympic-games-top-25-most-impressive-summer-olympics-records-20210622-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Olympic legends</a>. The United States gymnast captivated the world with her smile and technique in Rio de Janeiro.
In 2016, her routines earned her four gold medals in individual and team all-around competitions, floor exercises, and vault. In addition, she earnedthe bronze on the balance beam, a test in which Comaneci grabbed no other result than the golden metal. For the Tokyo Olympics, Biles will be one of the athletes to watch.
Shecould surpass Nadia Comaneci in gold metals and in the same way, she could pass her in the total of Olympic medals, since four podiums are enough to reach her.The evolution of sportsis so remarkable and gymnastics is no exception. The disciplineshave changed over the years and now, the technical difficulty is getting higher, so Simone Biles has a bigger challenge in the Japanese capital to aim for a spot aboveComaneci.

<h2>Nadia Comaneci: The greatest Olympic gymnast of all time?</h2>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="410" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:410" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20210715_BUS_173037_nadia_comaneci_of_romania_performs_her_balance_beam_routine_in_1978__xgettyx.jpg_20222851_38eede6a.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=410" width="740" height="410"></figure><figcaption> Nadia Comaneci of Romania performs her balance beam routine in 1978. (Getty) </figcaption></figure>
</div>
At 14 years old, Nadia Comaneci achieved perfection. She made it to the Montreal Olympics to go down in history after hitting the perfect 10 on the uneven bars and after that, she couldn’t stop doing it. The Romanian gymnast continued to add perfect grades to win three gold medals.
She also climbed to the top of the podium in the individual all-around and balance beam competitions, addingto her achievements a medal silver and a bronze to close the 1976 Games as the most outstanding athlete by winning five medals at ayoung age.
Four years later, at the 1980 Moscow Games, Comaneci added two more gold medals to herlegacy. Again, she turned out to be thebest one on the balance beam, and on the floor, exercises were named after her as well. In addition, sheleft with two silver medals to close herOlympic cycle with a total of nine medals.
Today the format of the Olympic score system is somewhat different, asgymnasts will now be granted the most points judging bythe complexity of the routines, and ifthe judges detect any errors, the points will be deducted. However, it was Comaneci’s innovation that put her on the top. Her creativity and the technical excellence that she sought in each of the tests that she carried out, continue to influence new generations, including the USgymnastSimone Biles.
<div style="text-align:center">
<div class="ck-youtube" id="youtube-35"> </div>
</div>
Many more people andgymnasts over the world willshare their opinion,as the argument over who is the all-time greatest Olympic gymnastwill carry on. However, as the next generation of athletes emerges, it’ssafe toconclude there won’t ever beanotherSimone Biles, nor anotherNadia Comaneci.
