Yep, sad that those people have made it to this stadium as well. Such an annoying trend in sports, more and more, all the booing and whistling (outside of the usual suspects in football).

It is coming from those who want clean sport.

Thank you!

I find it questionable to boo the athletes in this situation, because it's also not the same kind of situation as, say, athletes being caught on an individual basis. Much as I have my doubts about China as a whole here, I do find it somewhat unfair to boo the specific athletes. Just do nothing and stay quiet then.

 

Anyhow, time to enjoy the races, I doubt we'll get to an agreement here  

Get used to it. Podium protests are coming.
 

There are many known dopers in the Chinese team.

 Australia getting 4 gold medals already in the first day seems very likely. 

Even the men's 4x100 free?  

 

Edit: wait, we have 4 finals today and Germany already won one

But they won a cycling event

Gutted for Erika. Sad seeing her cry on national tv. Well done to Titmus, McIntosh and Ledecky. As expected.

I was including the cycling gold they won. Yeah, maybe the men's 4x100 is harder, but not out of the question.

What on earth was that last 150m from Ladecky? 800m is on

US is still the big favourites in the men's relay
