Wow, Canada has 1 more point than Australia. -
Interesting. We'll see how Liendo is after his final. Kind of strange to have Liendo on butterfly and Maggie on freestyle, but I'm sure the numbers make sense. And if Liendo does do well in the final, he'll be hyped up.

France beats Australia! I think that's big because it probably means Canada will face Azerbaijan instead of the USA in the play-in (if USA beats China next game). Edit: Actually, I'm not sure. If USA wins they would have 4 wins along with Canada and Australia, but they all beat each other so I'm not sure what the tie breaker is (points? if it's points, Canada wins the tie breaker).

Any word on who's up for the mixed swimming relay today?
-
If I have the tie-breakers worked out here in 3x3, and I'm sure I don't... I think we want France to beat AUS so Canada finishes 3rd. But I'm not sure it makes much difference.

That's what's so frustrating. They could have easily won their first game yesterday but instead took impossible shots when easier ones were available and blew the late lead. It just seems like they try to hard sometimes.

Hayes should play soccer seeing how much she's flopping around on the 3x3 basketball court.

-
Ok, anyway. No vault medal. Oh well.
-
Aaaaaaanyway, Olsen got 14.400 on her vaults in the team event. If she can replicate that, or even bring it up a touch, she's in the mix for the medals. And we'll see what Ellie can do, too.
-
I've said it before, I'll say it again: Canadian athletes (as a whole) have some mental block and have a hard time succeeding under pressure. It's been years if not decades. It's why we get so many 4th/5ths. Look at our medals now, half of them are surprises while favourites underperform. Summer is doing great, though!

If he just cleared 4.50 he'd still be in second.
-
Someone should have told him that. Ridiculous.
-
Complete disaster. We went from expecting gold and silver in decathlon to getting nothing. Oh well.
-
Warner is OUT.
-
The guy that was in third overall did not get a mark. Please Damien...
-
Warner has failed twice at 4.60....He has no clears yet.
-
Close to it. She's not completely out of it.
-
If Angus had that split for the team in Tokyo, they would have won gold. Oleksiak seems to be back on form, while Maggie and Masse are right around theirs. Looks good for the final, if they can maintain it.

DeGuchi loses her fight on penalties...

Italy defeats Georgia in judo.
-
Silver!!!! Dominating race by Romania, congratulations!
-
Oh man I had my doubts, but I put my alarm on for 2:50am (actually 1:50am because I'm an idiot who can't do math). So happy!
-
SILVER!!!!
-
Remember in London we only got 12 medals and 2 golds (one didn't come till much later). So 11 with 3 Golds by now is awesome.
