Ok golf is now exciting. Tennis is also.
Rory's charge over. Sticks it in the water.

5 birdies in a row for McIlroy to be one shot off gold and then finds water and drops 2 on the 15th. Medal chance gone now.

Who is showing the tennis? I had to hoke about on the dodgy stick to find it. If Murray had been in the final it would have been wall to wall coverage since breakfast time

Winning an Olympic Tennis Gold has real value as shown by Djokovic.

Very emotional. Delighted for him. He is a fighter.

He has cemented the GOAT tag.

The fact at 37 after having knee surgery in May still getting to a wimbledon final and winning gold in olympics on possible the hardest surface to do it on is mind boggling. Certainly in my eyes the greatest athlete thats ever existed

Terrific finish to the women's cycling road race.

Quote from: imtommygunn on August 04, 2024, 12:25:59 PMAlways felt the Russian ban was very Serb Coe inspired. If Russia are banned the likes of Ethiopia should be up for discussion with their lax drug testing and Kenya are starting to stray into territory where serious questions need asked with the amount of bans they are getting.

What an athlete femke Bol is.

That last 50 metres or so of the relay was mad. Like she turned on the turbo . Incredible power

On a side issue, I can't help thinking Femke Bol sounds like a Dutch person trying to pronounce Frankie Boyle

Wiffen looking gone....... $:-\$

Harold Disgracey · August 04, 2024, 05:53:25 PM

Not looking good at all.

Tony Baloney · August 04, 2024, 06:00:42 PM

Wee bit of humble pie for Wiffen.

gallsman · August 04, 2024, 06:02:51 PM

Very disappointing compared to our expectations but a gold and a bronze is nothing to be sniffed at. Wonder will he still do the 10k.

Not do him any harm. Maybe the brother will keep quiet now.

Yeah, he's a young lad. And seems to thrive on his own confidence. It's a high bar when we are disappointed with Bronze.

Irish swimmer wins gold and bronze at the Olympics. Epic! Sense of perspective needed. Two massive swims. Lovely interview congratulated the winner and says: "a gold and a bronze.. who cares! I'm an Olympic champion". #legend
