No medal for  

Bosnia, Niger and Refugees, they all had huge chances for medal, I feel sorry for them

Zamojski wins it in overtime. Man, that was intense. We got away with it 20-19.

This sport is interesting to watch.
Deserves olympic status in future.

Some great commentating on the OBS from Lucinda Green.
 
Cassoe Kruth impresses with 76.677%.

Kelly Layne's Samhitas preferred this over a piaffe. 58%.
 

Japan winning 10+ golds from Judo and Karate was never in doubt. Let's see how few will spoil the party 

Bronze for ! 

Andrea Podmaníková won her heat, and in a new NR 1:08.36 such achievement for SVK swimming

Thank you anti-doping policy ?

China on track for 8 golds as planned 

Korea undefeated since 1988 in Women's Team. 

Bosnia with a chance in Bronze!

Amazing race from Kiesenhofer! This is why I love the Olympics. It makes for such great stories!

And this is the point where Biden sends a message to China.

today is our bad luck. Sedaghat finished 9th with just 0.1 behind the qualification zone
 
both our shooters did good today, 9th and 10th, both missed the final by the narrowest possible margin

Kostadinova  Could have been gold...

And we go, another big surprise. Kelmendi is out

First gold of the swim meet goes to the United States.  Great swim by Chase Kalisz and what a finish by Litherland to grab the silver!

I wonder if slow finals will become a thing in the morning sessions. Probably not.

USA Olympics Recap Day 1
 
Archery:
I was thinking our Mixed Team would win against Indonesia   and get a possible medal but alas we lost in the first round with an 18-20 shootout score after a underwhelming 8 point arrow from Ellison. Here's to hoping the rest of our Archery competitions goes well for us. 
 
 
Basketball 3x3:
Women's
We win our first two matches. 17-10 vs France  and 21-9 vs Mongolia 
 
Badminton:
Men's  Doubles
In the first day of Group Stages Phillip and Ryan Chew lost 0-2 to Jun Hui Li and Yu Chen Lio of China  who were seeded 3rd. I'm not expecting Phillip and Ryan Chew to win a match in their group but should still be interesting and hopefully close matches on July 26th and 27th. 
 
Boxing:
Men's  Featherweight
Our featherweight boxer Duke Ragan beat Samuel Kistohurry of France  3-2, which advances him to the Round of 16 where he will face Serik Temirzhanov of Kazakhstan 
 
Men's Welterweight
Delante Johnson won his match 3-2 against Brian Arregui of Argentina 
 
Women's Featherweight
Yarisel Ramierez lost her opening round match 0-5 against Nikolina Cacic of Croatia 
 
 
Fencing:
Women's Individual Epee 
Kelley Hurley started in the RO32 against Erika Kirpu of Estonia  where she narrowly won 15-14. She then went onto the RO16 and narrowly lost 11-12 to Murtazaeva of ROC . Else where in the RO32 Kathrine Holmes lost 12-15 to Song Se-ra of Korea . Kathrine's sister Courtney Hurley lost 8-15 in the RO32 match against Zhu Mingye of China 
 
Men's Individual Sabre
On the Men's side in Sabre, Andrew Mackiewicz won in the RO64 15-13 against Shimaura of Japan . Later in the RO32 he lost 7-15 to Sang-uk from South Korea . Daryl Homer lost his initial match 11-15  in the RO32 against Amer of Egypt . Our hopeful medalist Eli Derschwitz who is seeded 2nd won his initial RO32 match 15-9 against Streets of Japan . He then got upset 9-15 by 15th seed Jung-hwan of South Korea. 
Football:
Women's 
We got back to our winning ways against New Zealand  where we won with a score of 6-1.
 
Shooting:
10m Air Rifle Women's 
We had two competitors in the Qualification round for this event. Mary Carolynn Tucker and Alison Marie Weisz. Weisz finished 14th with a score of 626.9 meanwhile, Tucker finished 3rd with a score of 631.4 which has now qualified her to the finals where hopefully she can score our first medal of Tokyo! 
 
In the final Mary Tucker unfortunately went out of the competition in 6th place. She will be back in action on July 31st in the 50m Rifle 3 Positions.
 
10m Air Pistol Men's
In the qualification round both our competitors failed to make it into the top 8 to reach the finals. James Hall placed 10th with a score of 577 meanwhile Nick Mowrer placed 13 with a score of 576. 
 
 
Softball:
We continue our winning streak with a 2-0 win over  setting us up well in the top four. 
 
 
Table Tennis:
Women's  Singles
In the preliminary rounds Ju Liu (68) upset Oshonaike (53) of Nigeria  4-1 allowing her to advance to the first round where she will play Dvorak (43) of Spain .
 
Men's  Singles
In the preliminary round Kumar (55) won his match 4-1 against Enkhbat (65) of Mongolia.  Kumar will now play against Mino (46) of Ecuador . 
 
 
Volleyball:
Men's
We win our opening match 3-0 against France 
 
Water Polo:
Women's
Our Women's team wins their first 25-4 match in the group stage against Japan . Great start for the team as we should at least get top 3 in our group. 
 
 
Weightlifting:
Women's 49kg
Our medalist hopeful Jourdan Delacruz was unable to get a successful Clean & Jerk after scoring a 86kg Snatch round. 
 
 
 
Personal Thoughts: Disappointing day for many of our athletes today. I was hoping for Medals in Mixed Archery, Men's Individual Sabre, Women's 49kg Weightlifting, or Women's 10m Air Rifle. 
 
Update: Not sure when I'll sleep but feel free to update the event's that I missed/haven't gotten to yet/slept through. If not I will go back in the morning and update everything! 

Milad Karimi from Kazakhstan made it to the finals in two apparatus.
 
he has an Iranian father (and a Kazakh mother) few years ago his dad really wanted him to represent Iran, he came here and talked with our Gymnastics federation in two different times. it didn't work out and our federation eventually said "he is not really good enough"
 
so the guy who according to our so-called experts wasn't good enough to make our Gymnastics team (which is very poor) is now in the Olympic final
 
 

And that's a wrap for Day 1. Jessica von Bredow-Werndl (84%) and Sabine Schut-Kery (78%) qualified out of Heat C.

I am so sad that cant watch any equestrian.
No channel in my country will broadcast it (not even a highlights), IOC will (?) upload finals only (who knows when). 
Pitty really.
At least i will have great coverage on this thread, as usual.
