4 years ago, Schooling was probably in total awe of these three swimmers.... now he is going to be sharing the podium with them, and he is on the top step. It's such a beautiful result in so many ways

And Schooling above them.... just wonderful

7.90m... 10th place... might be just enough :/

Not automatic Q but it's a white flag....

The UK holds its breath.......

Isn't it amazing how the Olympics throws up these moments... it's so fitting for the three of them to be tied together in what could be Phelps' final race.

First ever Olympic gold for Singapore

Cseh, Le Clos and Phelps all on same step of the podium..... awesome!!!

3-WAY TIE FOR SILVER!!! Wow!!

Schooling

Torneus Rutherford seems to be the only consistent male long jumper in recent times.... will that trend continue though?

Gold for DiRado!!! Hosszu has to settle for silver

I watched the game, very enjoyable. Good luck in the quarterfinals

So you don't know what she had for breakfast today? Shocking stuff Rutherford under pressure with two fails

Damn

Yeah Mo Farah eats up a lot of valuable viewing time.... and Ennis-Hill is filling that role right now

Where is the flame by the way? I love the design of the torch, but unless the flame is burning bright high in the sky at the Olympic stadium and visible outside the stadium, then it's not ideal.

And I'm watching Irish TV because British TV are talking and showing replays instead of live action

Surely you understand "sacre bleu" or "merde" which is what I imagine they might have said

So disappointing to see the Olympic stadium so empty

Nice run by Ciara to qualify for the 1500m semis

Thanks, we live in hope

The party is on without a doubt . Everyone is so happy about our first ever medal in rowing. The studio commentator was crying after the race, then I was crying, everyone was hopping up and down.... my nephew was waving the Ireland flag up and down and getting his first taste of great Olympic memories This was the reaction out in Rio among his family and fans, and similar scenes were had throughout the whole of Ireland And people celebrating at home as people gathered to watch the final....(play the video in the link) http://www.beat102103.com/sport/watch-skibbereen-erupts-odonovans-silver-medal-win/

It's hard to keep count

8th Olympic medal for Bradley and 5th gold
