Officially the worst day in the Chinese Olympic history?

Yes. Not only these solid 3 and also losing Women's skeet, Women's 100m fly, Gymnastics Men's team. Speechless and powerless.

Just caught up with last night’s gold medal match. What a match! Congrats to

Gionis 

 

41 years old, in his 5th Olympics, looking to make the round of 16 for the first time. Up 3-1 10-3 and loses 9 points in a row...

 

I don't see him turning this around now, what a choke...

How did he manage to lose 9 points in a row  It is incredibly sad how this match went.

He made mistakes that he wasn't making earlier on. Actually lost 12 in a row because he quickly went down 0-3 in the next set. 

 

He then saved a match point in the 7th set and had another two of his own but couldn't convert. So 9 match points lost. So sad. He played the match of his life for the first three and a half sets.

Omar Assar defeated Falck 4-3 OMG that's unbelievable maybe it's the biggest victory for Egyptian table tennis

Years ago, Harimoto was considered the prodigy to challenge the Chinese. Now he's lost to Jorgic.

Omar Assad qualified to Quarterfinal, but he'll face Ma Long

Brazilians had a rough time during the first week of the 2016 Olympics, and many of our gold medal favorites missed the podium entirely. We know how it feels, Japan. We know it.

Epic battle in the first 1/2 and Fan makes it to the final. Now we need Ovtcharov to make a miracle, so there is some intrigue in the final.
