Apparently this is the first Italian WC victory since 1976.

I prefer the times when Zimbabwe was winning gold in this. Yeah, I know what kind of tournament that was, but still, taking everything into account it's one of the greatest Olympic stories ever told.

I think I watched exactly 47 seconds of Olympic tournaments in Rio.

You really don't like Mourao, do you?

Literal goosebumps from Laura's music, as always. Firm leader so far with 5 more combinations to go.

Results are in. Bad day for many. However Barbados is holding team bronze despite having one elimination. Equestrian medal would be incredible for them! Also one Guatemalan managed to be almost 45 seconds inside the time.

So, somehow I'm the leader for the second day in row.

Looks like organizers might need a whole day to add up all those time penalties. Too bad, I'm curious to find out what happened to teams.

France!

No commentary on ESP player today.

Later today, starting at 21:30, there is a "Jump'n'Drive" competition. No idea how it works exactly, but apparently it's a team competition with one show jumper, one eventer and one driver per team. It should be intriguing. Start list

That was a revenge for he's done at Wimbledon.

Probably because someone Dutch is broadcasting.

I thought usually share all of the roller skating medals.

I guess this Honduran who barely skates was invited to give Colombia gold.

Looking at the score sheet, she didn't go above 8.0 for any movement, while everyone else gave some 8.5-9.0. She also gave a lot of 7s compared to 8s from others, so eventually it racks up. It's consistent low scoring. I guess it was it a combination of not praising good work and searching for mistakes where there aren't any... Probably related to Kasey being an underdog...

Cool, already have medals.

Swedish judge at M is either very incompetent or she is only judging the names. Because of her we didn't see shocking underdog (and deserved) victory from Kasey Perry-Glass. Still, it was a nice day in Aachen. Unbelieveable that such judge will be at the World Championships later this year... Come on, even I gave Perry-Glass 78% in the spectator app.

Unlike Spain, Papua New Guinea managed to score a try against Australia. It's rather refreshing to have a team sport that isn't EUROPE EUROPE EUROPE.

I can't wait for him to attempt the 2000m race.

Refusals for Klimke and Lips. So only Chipmunk to go. are just crazy.

And once again Burton goes around and trolls everyone. First inside the time, impossible for everyone else.

EPIC performance from New Zealand. Just wow.

Andrew Hoy is back at the top.
