Never did I ever think I’d voluntarily watch Women’s Doubles tennis, but Boulter & Watson are leading  (the whole of it) by a set and a service break in the second.

I usually hate all forms of doubles but i enjoy at the olympics, just hits different, same with davis cup etc

Eventually Team GB has some success in the boxing ring.

Really thought the screwjob was going to be completed then, nice they let us have one. One win from a medal

Why the long wait for the archery to resume? Bit worried the Brits will lose their momentum.

They do like one quarter of the draw at a time in a session, so takes a few days to get through R64 and R32 games, both men's and women's that's a lot of matches

Missed an update on the men's skiff because the stream closed and i honestly didn't think they were gonna race again, they improved thier overall position slightly.

Going in to the medal race GB are 7th, 9 points off 3rd....achievable but unrealistic i think, i guess if they finish top 2 in the medal race there's a slight shot

At this point in the sailing I think it’s all on Emma and the men’s dinghy.

 

maybe the mixed boat has chances but not exactly a favourite.
