Yeah, I won't worry about it too hard but I didn't check Chedda's score to see if he cares, but Sabalenka was the #2 seed at Wimbledon and US Open at least so I didn't check the others. Belarus should be right.

ETA: Chedda is fine, but it could affect tiebreaks it seems. Or tell me what I'm missing.

Ryan has refused to recognize Belarus since the Swamp began.

He did say that. However, Belarus is a totally different country!

TB with what I assume is on close to a record low (personal) score at the moment.
Just reading through these now and am beyond stunned at 1-point hit on the hockey. I knew two penalties and that was one of them. Figured it was gonna be top 5 and not even a correct answer.
I wanted to answer “holding the stick” instead of boarding but it didn’t cost me. But was confused because isn’t “too many men” an actual penalty?

BTW, I switched from a 1 or 2 pointer to an incorrect answer at least twice in this one. Typical.
Ha, that's the only one I knew! And I was less confident on Kittles, but no guess on anyone else.

I thought Satay would be a big score. No accounting for this game. Never heard of the South African dish and it seems I'm not alone.

Was Belarus also unrecognized at the tourneys? I probably skipped over it if Wiki didn’t show the flag. Will fix.

No need them. I took Russia too literally I guess.

My issue was not knowing exactly how many penalties there are, so I couldn't figure out of the obscure ones would be in the 10-15 range or the 20-25 range.

I believe Belarus was unrecognized as well. Kinda think they've been in lockstep with mother Russia on this Ukraine bullshit.

I can’t believe I got tripped up on the geography question. I thought Trinidad was much farther west than it actually is. Tobago, too.
