Had the lawn bowls semis broadcasted in 4 channels at the same time including on the cricket only channel . It was 12-13 with 2 balls left and NZL with a amazing ball thats when Rani Tirkey had a fantastic shot to give 4 points meaning NZL had an a difficult shot. As they failed the excitement reached sky high . I don't think  lawn bowls has had any better moment till now in India.

Yeah, like Curling bowls can produce amazing last-play turnarounds.

Wow, even British announcers are surprised by the Englishman going into first over the Canadian in gymnastics.  I don't know enough to say one way or the other.

Aceyla Toprak beat Christine Legentil by Ippon (10s1-0s2) and will face Christa Deguchi in the final. Ashley McKenzie beat Katz by Waza-ari (1s2-0s1) and faces Samuel Hall in the final. That's the morning session of Judo done!

Rigged. How can someone Score so much higher with less difficulty...makes 0 sense. Another lost gold...rip

A marathon game but Turmel falls 9-11 18-16 11-9 14-12.

Jake Jarman takes his third gold of the games with a brilliant 14.666, and Regini-Moran takes bronze with 13.966

I'm a bit confused because the announcers said Jarman had less difficulty, but on the results page he's way above in difficulty (6.3 vs 5.9 for Dolci from Canada).  If that's the case, it makes sense (although execution is still higher for Jarman which....ok?  Whatever you say...).

I actually thought I'd like it but it was never streamed or telecasted during CWG so watching an entire game was fun.

England survive a comeback from to win Gold in lawn bowls. They won 14-12... they were 12-1 up at one points!
