Owens  with a complete meltdown in the 1500m. It might cost him the Olympic Q…

Two way tie for the bronze medal in the men’s decathlon. Can’t recall the last time there was a tie for a medal in the event.

Were two of the poomsae events in taekwondo counted as non medal events? Earlier today, there were results for both men and women’s individual freestyle poomsae. Now the two events have disappeared from the results system

I noticed that too, Mexico and Guatemala won those events. I wonder what happened, they had at least 5 nations competing, which is the minimum to be an official event. 4x400m relax mixed in Athletics only had 4 nations and is counting in the medal table.
