They are really beating the fuck out of each other

It's a war

Hottie loses

Sadly I think so. Needs ippon

Should be harsher penalties for leaving the ring

There was some quick power hitting there

Quite the story of illness and tragedy for Kirani James but he now has the full set of Olympic medals in the 400 m. The Bahamas will be up there for medals per capita if Shaunae Miller-Uibo wins too.

There are some serious hard bodies in the heptathlon. Just finished the 800m and they are all lying prone on the track

Hmmm, that Canadienne

Just checking the basketball draw. How the furk did Slovenia get so damn good?

Luka Doncic. That is all.

He’s having an amazing Olympic campaign. Not just his scoring but he is definitely lifting his team.

A very good game on now in the semi final between Slovenia and France. Final quarter and France up by 4 points.

[Stargazer]

Geez, not many nationalities in this 2nd heat.
3 athletes from the USA, 2 Belgian, 2 Dutch
1 from Austria and 1 from Benin

You’re easily my favorite poster over the last few days. Well played.

[Stargazer]

So with that last run of the heptathlon, the Netherlands won two medals (silver and bronze), just stealing one from Belgium who win gold (and the other finishing 4th). Is living below sea level an advantage for heptathlon?

Batummmmmmmmmmm big time block to save the game.

[Bovidae]

France nearly did a very French thing and choked.

[ACT Crusader]

I think it’s finished right with the two best teams - USA v France for gold, and the next best two Slovenia and Oz for bronze.

Big night for French teams with both the men’s volleyball and basketball teams qualifying for the gold medal matches.

I havent seen any official announcements so presume ladies golf will still be contested over the full 4 rounds. They are however going off split tees today so perhaps trying to get through before some weather comes in later in the day. Surely any decision needs to be made before the first group tees off today.

Anyway, Lydia off at 11.42am NZtime along with Jessica Korda

Oh and Gaby 10.59am NZ time and paired with Brook Henderson.
