Pauline Ducruet and the Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games

[RADKER18]

I'm not very knowledgable about this sport. What are the strips of adhesive we keep seeing on Pauline's upper arms?

You see it all the time in Tennis Players it is a tape to hold a sore or torn Muscle in place it puts pressure on the injured area to relieve the pain but the tape is designed to move with the person wearing it so they can still play their sport

I think the strips are just to give support to her shoulder muscles. Kind of like an Ace bandage. Maybe she has had shoulder trouble before.

Well, how'd she do in the World Junior Diving Championships?

The final state of play at the Singapore Youth Olympics on Wikipedia:

2010 Summer Youth Olympics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

and: Monaco at the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(will be updated soon).

Great to see that a "dwarf-sized country" can compete alongside the "giants".

It was touching to see the little Monaco family together with their sovereign...

The next Youth Olympic Games will be at Innsbruck, Austria in 2012.

These are the FIRST WINTER Youth Olympics, from January 13th to 22nd.

Another chance for Monaco....
