    Reverse commentators curse. That looks bloody good fun though. Wonder how big the foil would need to be to carry me though…

    Just thinking of all the NZers who are going to be waking up soon and learning of two Gold Medals overnight.

    Five million people, five Olympic Gold medals and these games aren't done.

    The golf is interesting with no cut line, so it, like LIV doesnt follow the traditioanal format: it would be interesting to see how many of those beyond the "usual" cut line climbed into the top 10 say.

    Do players get ranking points from this?

    On the wall climbing, I reckon they should have to start a metre back from the wall rather than pretty much on the wall with grips and foot hold ready to boost up.

    US Athletics has announced that Noah Lyles has Covid.

    He ran 19.70 and secured the bronze medal with Covid. He must be a doubt for the relays.

    Some of the Aussie swimmers competed with COVID, so if he can go he could still race
