Re: Giralt, his surname definitely has an 'l' in it, but there was a spelling mistake on his passport and because names on accreditation have to reflect what's on your passport, he's kind of stuck with incorrect spellings at championships until he gets a new passport!
I'd noticed the incorrect spelling of Yargelis too, but don't know what the story is there.
