Meanwhile if Joshua Hurlburt-Yu and Josephine Wu win their match today, all of Canada's entries would have made the semifinals.

 

Canada is dominating badminton.

I think only Brazil could avoid a swept. They have the best player in men's singles.

Trinidad & Tobago is in shape... they will go for gold in men's team sprint cycling.

 

Too bad Venezuela was a DNS. Comentators can't explain this fact, as the team was already in the velodrome.

@mrv86 What is the difference between the tempo race and the scratch race?

Tempo race has several sprints, similar to points race, but only winner of the sprint gets a point.

 

Scratch is about winning laps on the rest of the field, basically.

So the tempo race is an essentially pointless 4th race...

Yeah, Canada is 8/8 in badminton all that's left to determine is the colour of the medals

Well it is one of the main modifications done to the original format of Omnium.

 

Before, the Omnium comprised every individual race not on the Olympic program, with 6 events in total.

 

Now it was shortened to be completed in one day, instead of two.
