That looked good from Benus apart from one thing that seemed to have cost some time

This is just one run right?

I just read the story of Tasiadis and his girlfriend dying of leucemia/cancer last year.. Well, now I hope he wins Sorry @hckosice

Our 4x200m men to the final by only 0,04 seconds, finally some luck

About Van Gelder: Saturday he qualified for the rings finals, after which he and Epke Zonderland were in the studio of the Dutch TV to talk about their performances. The NOS (our broadcaster) had them brought back to the Village, after which Van Gelder went to the "Holland House" (where our medals are celebrated, it's awfully quiet there so far ), where people saw him drinking and smoking. Around 1am he went out and went to some night club in Rio and only arrived back in the Village around 6am making all kinds of noise according to sources there Yuri, you fucking idiot. A disgrace for our sports.

How many will go through to the final?

Finally, some Australians who don't disappoint/peak wrong..

So Sablikova lost at CAS and isn't allowed to start tomorrow's time trial.

Alright, women's team final tonight and since we are in there, I'm even more interested USA for gold unless all of them fall down on every apparatus I guess, but from my limited perspective it looks like the fight for the other medals could be very close.. only Japan, Germany and the Netherlands without a medal chance normally based on the qualifying results, and Brazil with a chance for a medal if they have a fantastic day?

Verwijlen Again..

Such a huge disappointment for our pair

Well, don't get me wrong: I much prefer Silva winning the gold than Dorjsuren, since I have no special thing about Mongolia (neither positive nor negative) and a home gold was a fantastic moment for Silva. I was convinced it was an illegal leg grab and in that case she should clearly have been disqualified, but after seeing some photos from different angles, I'm starting to think it maybe was not an illegal leg grab after all

Most was impossible to understand in her broken crying English I did pick up "The first time was my fault, the second time it was just politics and people don't understand the truth, because they just believe what they hear and see on TV and internet"

Dutch TV interviewing a incredibly emotional Efimova, interesting to see.

Angola's women are turning into the heroes of these Olympics And their goal keeper is epic

That look from King to Efimova before the start

Ah sad for Meilutyte

YEEEEEEEES!! No Efimova

Let's go everyone who's not called Efimova

Obviously, but yeah, it looks like Verhaeren hasn't been able to teach his team how to peak properly after all (which is of course not that surprising when you see Campbell breaking a WR in the in-betweenseason...)

She was not the hot favourite this time, she was one of the 2-3 main candidates, especially after winning 2 gold medals at last years world champs, proving that she's definitely not a typical choker. I'm guessing it's more a matter of Aussie's peaking too early (again), because apart from Horton they're all disappointing so far. Before the Olympics I'd have said Australia had like 70-80% chance for the gold in both the 50 and especially 100 free, though those numbers have already started dropping after these first few days.

And to clarify, the is not for Seebohm.
