In terms of the Euros, Wednesday’s headlines were that Charly got thru to Rd of 32, while Joan Duru didn’t.

What does this mean? Well, let’s wait and see before making any conclusions. These rankings kinda baffle/bore the shit outta us in equal measure.

But it’s safe to say:

Good news for Charly, not so much for Joan.

Leo needed to win the event pretty much to qualify, and he lost in Rd of 64 too. But still, it was a fucken solid year nevertheless for the 16-year-old Italian.
