And so that’s it for Andy Murray. What a career.

I think we’ve had a cracking start to the Games. There have been some individually disappointing results, but I actually think that speaks to how strong and competitive Team GB are and how much we exp

I don't think Olympicsnell was *expecting* a gold in the road race. They were using that as an example of the events which are a lottery and which can determine whether this is a 'good' Olympics or a

Oh dear. She always underwhelms at the Olympics. 

Sadly, she is in the worst possible position in British sport - being that one single world class athlete on whom a whole edifice of sporting funding is built.  Okay, there is money for shotgun, but for rifle - it’s just her.

to no ones surprise, man is in pieces. 

GB losing to France in the hockey and Italy in the Tennis.... one of those to be expected, the other certainly not *sigh*

Hockey turned about for a 2-1 win

Once again I am confronted with the quadrennial mystery that is Olympic sailing.  :GBR In with an outside medal chance in the men’s skiff.  Not a boat you would choose for a luxury voyage by the look of it.

GB Men now guaranteed to reach the knockout rounds of the Hockey tournament. A win against Germany in the final group game would probably mean a QF against Argentina or India, and a decent shot of progressing to the medal games. Draw or lose against Germany, and we're likely to find ourselves facing Belgium or Australia, who'd provide a much stiffer test.

Oh sailing, never change. GB wern't doing well so the one above turned off the wind. We go again 

See, this is one of my bugbears.  Low wind conditions are precisely when you find out the BEST sailors.  It’s like stopping the 100m because someone is running too fast.

      Speed Skating ISU World Cup 2024 - 2025

      Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.

      The news then is that she has not yet been arrested? I suppose Camila when she returns to Italy will have a very unwelcome visit from the Guardia di Finanza.

      Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
