Bespalova landing some clean punches and kicks in this second round, even got  Han on the ground for a split second, how did she not win that round? 

 

Judges still scoring in favor of Han, not sure I agree but well home-crowd advantage helps…

[Josh 13,430]

 Han defeats  Bespalova in the women’s -60kg muay thai semifinals with three 10-9 rounds. 

 

 Kocahus awaiting in the final.

Bronze for Efraimoglu in women’s tumbling! 25.700!

GB historically are actually pretty strong at the non-Olympic gymnastics disciplines (though not the one with the hint of cheerleading) - probably precisely because they aren't Olympic.

 Andrea Maya Becerra (archey) and Zhuoling Lu (wushu) nominated as atlete of the day

What's the difference between the "open 8-seater" and the "10-seater" in the dragon boat racing (besides obviously the number of athletes )? The 10-seater also seems to be mixed, no?

 

Also, can someone tell the commentator that Myanmar is Myanmar, and not Man-yeemar?
