A new day of the Olympic Games is coming with the participation of the Argentinians in the pursuit of podiums from the water, and more activities with horse riding and athletics, which you can follow live on Drink.

Farewell to the best Larocca

José María Larocca, the oldest Argentine athlete in this Olympic squad of 136 athletes, finished his fifth Olympic Games in 25th position in individual jumping. Riding Finn Lente, the one born in Switzerland but with ID and “very Argentinian” feelings, Larocca achieved his best historical position with a score of 81.82 and 20 in penalty during his pass with a limit of 84 seconds. Steve Guerdat of Switzerland came first with 80.99.

Argentina took the most penalties in the final, to do it in four barriers of the armed circuit in the gardens of the Palace of Versailles. A silver medalist at the Lima Olympics and the only Argentine on this team to win five Games, he finished in 29th place out of 30 riders in this men’s and women’s trial.

In the medal round, reserved for the three best representatives, German Christian Kikuk took gold; silver went to Guerdat and bronze went to Dutchman Markel van der Vleuten.

Argentina won regatta 10 of Nacra 17!

Mateo Majdalani and Eugenia Bosco They started the penultimate day of their sailing category in the best way, as not only did they win the first of three chapters today, but their most competitive rivals did not start well.

The Argentines beat the Dutch duo by 20 seconds and the North American duo by 53. The “good news” is that the Second-placed New Zealanders finished 17thand the Italians, contenders for gold – they are the current world and Olympic champions – were disqualified because they started last.

So, with two races remaining in the Medal Race, in which the first 10 boats competing for medals are ranked, Argentina, with 29 points, is second to Italy (20), New Zealand is third, further back, with 37; Great Britain appears in fourth place with 43.
