haha, im in tears !!!
Winning isnt the same when you get a technical advantage. Hes cleary a man of honour who takes his sport seriously
He was already ahead thus another shot wouldn't have matter. If he was behind and did the same then it would be sportsmanship.

This man right here is the definition of the spirit of competition.
He didn't want to win. He wanted to be better, and if he's not, then lose fair and square.
I didn't know who he was, and likely never hear from him again. But I respect this man.
You actually know who he is.
@@silo3com didn't* not don't
Oh he wants to win alright, but he wants to win fair and square.
Of course he wants to win. He was leading, it would probably be a different story if he was behind and no one would have batted an eye.
@@meganesenpai That's what he said.

He could have fired the arrow into the crowd but he chose not to. True sportsmanship.
this is why I read comments XDD
Lmao underrated

Genius. Lol
It takes archers years of training to learn to block out the brain's natural impulse to fire an arrow into the densest part of any crowd within their line of sight. These two are both truly disciplined.

Classic case of: “Doesn’t matter if you win or lose, it matters how you play the game.”
@Johan Fouche Malfunctioned on his opponents 3rd of 5 shots. Agreed though it didn't matter as he chose to miss his 4th shot going into the 5th with a 3 point lead. That's like giving me a grenade and saying bet you can't make a hole in the dirt (it's just that easy for these guys). He's going to hit an 8 or better, giving him the win regardless.
@Johan Fouche There was another round, how did you miss that fact?
What kind of people do great things with their life that ends up raising the bar of mankind, winners or losers?
It is pretty important to see who the winners are, and what the score is. The same attitude that wins in sports is the same attitude that got mankind out of the dirt in all aspects of our history. Cows in a pasture will eat about the same amount of grass though. Don't confuse them with the amazing brains of human beings. We used to share the same dinner table, so winning matters.
-Ernie Calhoun
@Johan Fouche
Because they are equally skilled with one of them edging out ahead by a hair's breadth
If either one of them makes a mistake, as long as the other one doesn't - the one who doesn't wins
But what if they had, whilst that malfunction was the determining factor as to why someone could make a mistake and still be ahead points wise
That's why it matters
For these folks this is a classic case of "a game of inches", but if someone is a meter ahead because of a malfunction and technicality... then it's no longer fair
Sergio could've chosen to keep playing ahead because he wasn't responsible of the malfunction and have a comfy lead that would've been impossible to surpass
He chose not to
Ahead or not, the match was over when the malfunction struck, and it was only made a match again - regardless of who was in the lead at the time - by Sergio
That's why it matters
I read this as "Sportsmanship always wins: Archer chooses to not shoot opponent after his arrow malfunctions"

well, that would've been a different kind of match 🤣🤣🤣
Aw snap
Exactly I read the same and thought isn't that how it normally works😂
He wouldnt have been hated if he took the shot, he's just way more legendary now.
If I were him I probably would’ve taken the shot to get it over with and then ask the archer if he’d like to go shooting some day with me in private for fun just to make up for the botched equipment

In any sport, when you show honor and your opponent tells you: You are something else. That's the moment when you know you have become someone, regardless if the world knows you or not.
This reminds me of itachis quote of "we do not know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths. As death comes to embrace you, you will realize who you are."
@@hungcapitalll technically wouldn't it be the creator of naruto that the quote belongs to?
@@hochgeistig1342clearly you value the association more than the message. Seriously?
He's been training his entire life to be in that moment, yet he decided to step away and do the right thing. Class act.
Winning by skill is better than by technicality
It's like Lightning McQueen
It wasn’t the right thing to do. If it was then it wouldn’t matter because it’d be expected of him. And it wouldn’t have been the wrong thing either if he scored another point following the malfunction. Bad things happen, that’s life. But the man made a choice to start again at an even playing field. What he did was show he holds the integrity of the match over simply winning. He showed he’s a person of honor and doesn’t need luck to get ahead. I think the ultimate test for him would have been if he was behind 10 points and this happened. If he took the shot it wouldn’t have given him the lead but he would have been tied. Would he have made the same choice? I would like to think he would, but I’m basing it off of less than 2 minutes of knowing about his existence.
@@Meltyclaw who let the greek philosopher in the room?
he had already won
This video was less about archery and more about sportsmanship and that guy being mad honorable and respectful.
Yep. Only the Houston Astros and New England Patriots want to win by using advantages.
How much longer did their match go? He was in the lead and not taking a shot if you have won anyways is not a big sacrifice
@@laurean5998 dude, you can watch the score your self............. anyways, they were 107-104 and the finishing score was 136-134
That's exactly what the title says... isn't it?
Yeah, the vid was not about archery at all.
For those who aren't archers, what he did was a pretty big deal because in compound archery, the bows are so accurate that they are aiming for a perfect score. As you can see, most of the time they are scoring 10, with an occasional 9, and the total scores are very close.
You basically win by being as close to perfect as possible, and hoping the opponent drops a few points over the course of the match.
A miss means zero points for that arrow. If Sergio had shot his arrow, most likely scoring 10 points, that would have given him an absolutely massive lead, and it would have been impossible for his opponent to win, as long as Sergio didn't make any big mistakes from that point on (very unlikely at this level).
Basically the match would have been ruined, the remaining arrows would have been a formality, and it wouldn't have been very interesting to watch for the crowd. He basically saved the whole match for everyone involved by his sporting decision.
i don't know anything about archery but, how does sergio getting a massive lead matter when they only have 3 shots each and his opponent did all 3 already?
is there more rounds after this clip? if so, who won?
@@42ndMoose he got stuck on points 97 94 and the game ended on 136 and 139 i guess. So there were few rounds left

Humility, compassion and courage to risk it all. True sportsmanship right here.
The sportsmanship is awesome and all, but what warms my heart is the instant recognition, understanding, and response of the crowd. Wow!
I know, right? He gets told what happened and is like, "Well it wouldn't be fair for me to keep going now, would it?" Almost reminds me of the first Cars movie when Chick makes King crash, so McQueen takes last place just to push him over the line.

@@R-Lee- I would have taken the shot the best I can, and told him my 5 year old son sets up my triggers to see if he would like to hire him. It would have been nice of me to offer, as long as it was OK with the kid. :)
I feel like we should just respect whatever decision the opponent would make. If he decided to walk off the line, that's great. If he stayed and took his shot, that's also fine. As long as no one is cheating here, he shouldn't be hated because of it.
The world needs more people like this, the truest spirit of sportsmanship.

Exactly.
Technically he was ahead by three points when he didn’t take his shot. So I wonder if he would have been down or even if he would have still done it
Winning happens every game, sportsmanship is a far rare entity.
I say yes, sportmanship is more important. Takes more dignity. These days it is going extinct. People care so little about character and values. They elect the worst ones just to be on top. The dirtier the better. When the whole playing field infested with the "winning in any means" kind, the good ones have no chance. To really have a meaningful game, you have to respect the spirit of fairness. Otherwise there is no meaningful victory.
So yes, sportmanship is harder and more important.
@@kingdog9854 he could've made it 13 points and made it virtually impossible for his opponent to outpace his score. But he didn't. He won by 2 points at the end of the match. That is a hairline victory.
He gave his opponent a fighting chance when he could've buried him. It doesn't matter whether it was done when he was winning or not. He showed honor. You insinuating he did it because he's already ahead showed more about you than him.

“I’m competing against your skill, not the reputation of your gear’s manufacturers”
It takes skill to make sure your equipment is working properly. It is not a thing of "chance", "luck, good or bad", and that goes for the Bow also,---right?
I will even bet you the moon that the trigger mechanism was developed by a competitor, and not a manufacture. Unless you are running a barefoot/naked foot race through the desert with nothing but your birthday suit,----you have to maintain your equipment. You yourself have to compete for survival, (unless you are a ward of the state, of which there can be no life anyway); Do you maintain your car and home? It is for the same reasons, and part of the skill needed to succeed.
Now let me tell you what go mankind out of poverty. The factory. Show some respect.

@@EarthSurferUSA I'm pretty sure he has a guy maintain the equipment for him. Some stuff can be faulty no matter how much you check. If a plane malfunctions mid flight, does that mean the pilot is shit? If you're driving your car and it breaks down, does that make you a bad driver?

The malfunction happened as such things can and the time constraint meant it could not be assessed and repaired before the shot timer was up. If Patrice had been a professional tennis player, would he have laughed at his competitor breaking a string on the racket and not giving him time to get a new racket before serving?
When winning by skill and love for the sport is more important than just being a winner. Awesome man!!!

Where is that quote from?
@@TheOmniPimp I believe it is the "Olympic Spirit" I do not remember the original author.
A profound philosophy. When I was in high school, many decades ago, our basketball team won almost all of their games and we were the smallest high school in our division. I don't think we even had anyone over six feet. It was pure skill and drive. But our high school had a philosophy like your quote. Our cheerleaders were instructed to to do cheers for the losing team at the end of the game pointing out their skill and hard work. When we won the state championship our coach got up and just before he accepted the trophy on the team's behalf he made a five minute speech about how wonderful our opponents had played and he singled out several of their key players to praise and then talked about what an amazing thing to have beaten the best team in league history. We won the championship by one point. There was not a single moment where there was more than a four point difference in scores so it was a continuous nail biter. Then he insisted that our team be photographed together with their team and alternating players so that their team was in the newspaper as well as ours. Normally only the winning team would be in the paper. It was a wonderful life lesson for our school.

#1 reason I watch/love the Olympics is the athletes attitudes towards each other. These people are trying there best to beat you, it all comes down to mili seconds or a foot here or there, most if not all of the competitors look and act genuinely happy for each other. Obviously everyone wants to win, but each of these people know more than anyone how hard it is to get to this exact moment and compete.
Thousands of hours training, dedicated part of your life for this one moment, only a few win, but there they are cheering, laughing, crying, hugging each other in the bonds of community and love.
