I don't think that'll last past today. A silver in beach volleyball puts us back ahead of them, and that's "worst case scenario".

Mitchell and Genest qualify for the sprint in 10th and 12th, respectively.

I am interested to see this new event BREAKING.  I know there are issues or controversy is it a sport.  There are many x type sports now because well they are popular with the young.   I am happy about the depth of Canada - they do look like they willl beat Tokyo's results.  they have 23 medals for sure if you include beach volleyball and Canada still has men's 800, women's shotput, Kate Vincent and Breaking as really good chances to medal. then there are a few outside opportunities - 4x 100 mens and women's though fourths look more hopeful.
