It's almost like playing with athletes' feelings.

In the Olympics this time, there are too many misjudging and re-judging. Each time, athletes are delighted or driven to the depths of despair.

All athletes had been trying hard to do everything in the past 4 years for the moment in the Olympics. So I think it's all too cruel.

For example, the men's gymnastics team final.
When all of them finished their performance, the fist place was , the second Britain, the third Ukraine, and the fourth Japan. The Ukraine team were very delighted to get a medal. However, Japan lodged a protest over the judgment. It took a long time for judges to make a decision. During that, all athletes showed an anxious look on their faces.

In the end, the judges accepted the Japan's protest, then Japan was in the second place, which means Ukraine missed a medal.
It was good for Japanese, but when I thought about the feelings of Ukraine team and their extreme efforts for 4 years, it broke my heart.
