Medal Round
Does anybody know why the finals were wrestled at the same time as 3rd/4th and 5th/6th place matches? Took a lot of attention away from the finals. I hope it's not a permanent change. The finals should be separate and the center of everyone's attention. Meanwhile, those going for 3rd and 5th got almost no attention unless it was from the wrestlers' teams.

What I meant was that attention was taken away from both 3rd/5th place bouts and the finals. (Not to mention, as a previous wrestler, it's nice to watch your own weight class finals match). And I still don't understand how there wasn't enough time...quarterfinals were wrestled the day prior, which I don't recall happening in the past few years, at the open at least. And we also took an hour break after the consi semis round...which is long enough for the 45 minute rule, not to mention the fact that 106 would have been done with their 45 minute break after maybe 10 minutes after the 285's had finished wrestling.
