Scared to go home because she criticised the team / organisation. ..
All a bit cold war eh?
Scozza - not a fan of golf as an Olympic event. Something just doesn't feel right about it. Might be cause it bores me to death of course..

Kind of agree about the golf, I like watching it but I suppose you could question the competition, most of them are professionals and play on the world tour. Like putting a Mayweather or superstar boxer in the boxing ring!

Cracking time in the women's 200 too
And duplantis in the pole vault
used to do this in my younger days and was a huge fan of Sergei bubka who was the God of vaulting before duplantis. He's in a league of his own.

Well done Sky Brown, 13 years old, Bronze medalist, what a brilliant little character, got through a serious injury ( fractured skull and more) to earn her place in Japan, failed to finish in her first two runs falling whilst attempting the same technique, tried it again in the final run and pulled it off to claim the Bronze, fantastic for someone so young 🙌

Those girls have more balls than that trans weight lifter ever had.
Skate and bmx looks easy to fall gracefully.... it's not

“Is it a sport” 🤔
Did you watch that rock climbing???.... amazing watching them.climb that wall in under 8 seconds, I've only seen the women's so far and the strength they need is incredible, probably one of the most physically demanding events in the whole games.

Well put jimmer
Technique, skill and strength. All Olympian qualities in my book.
Golf... Not so much. Some middle class people in silly trousers and v neck jumpers who can't even carry their own kit around? The ancient Greeks would've fed them to the Kraken

Brilliant Silver for Laura Muir. If ever a medal was richly deserved, it's this one. Well done, lass
Some incredible performances even those that haven't managed a medal have done so well, Team GB have done us proud again 🙌
me and wife have just watched the Women's combined climbing, I am totally in awe of them, and the winner was unbelievable. The pain in her fingers from lactic acid couodnt stop her from totally outclassing everyone else. 🙌

Well done to the Olympic Gold Medal winner, who has now added a Bronze to bring his tally of Olympic medals to four.
Brilliant, Tom Daley...
(Like the knitting, by the way!)
