Only one medal chance tomorrow (Barber in the pole vault)

[juddy96 171]

Barber's pole vaulting this year is about as inconsistent as my poker results

Canada's women's teams all played (or will play) France in the qfs. They are 2-0 and can they make it 3-0?

[JoshMartini007 2,820]

What a weird rivalry we ended up having with France. I wonder if they've noticed that.

Oldershaw misses the final 

[orangeman 2,850]

Thought he had it, but faded badly over the last 100m.

As for volleyball, Canada's in a tough position.  They're tied with France, Brazil and USA, with only three of them going forward.  USA is playing Mexico, so we can pretty much assume they're through.  France and Brazil play, so the winner of that game will go through.  So, it'll come down to Canada or the loser of the FRA-BRA game.  So, it'll basically come down to who does better in their game today.  Hopefully, Canada can at least win 2 sets from Italy and get a point.  The good news is that Italy has clinched first, so maybe they'll rest their players and not take it very seriously.  

 

It's just insane that Canada could go 3-3 in this stacked pool, beating USA and Italy, and still barely squeak into the quarters.  Meanwhile Iran has already clinched the quarters with 2 wins over in pool B.  The pool draws are ridiculous (and the way the games worked out, too).  There's a chance Brazil won't even make it to the quarters.
