Looks like she’s in (according to the results graphic).

Kerr who received a late reallocation is onto the final. She was very pleased with that

Stensils misses out on Final A by 0.001s

Get the feeling there might be a few protests of that heat… Definitely one of the more messy ones I’ve seen.

Yeah, I started getting that feeling a few days ago. I don’t think it means I’m not enjoying the Games, but perhaps more that I’m becoming increasingly tired and thus following the Games is becoming a bit more tedious because of that. Yeah, I’ve tried to watch all medal sessions this time around and I don’t think it’s the most enjoyable way to follow the Games. There’s just too much I want to see, and you can’t really follow anything in earnest when trying to keep up with multiple events at once.

Gold for After celebrating gold medals for many other nations @Griff88 can finally celebrate a gold for his.

Racing postponed due to weather. No races today.

More weather delays today…

Great effort from Tentoglou to keep persisting in order to take victory.

I missed the ceremony. What did she do?

Update on a story posted to this thread yesterday:

“Four-times Formula One champion Sebastian Vettel was reprimanded for not removing a t-shirt promoting LGBTQ+ rights ahead of the national anthem at the Hungarian Grand Prix on Sunday. The German was wearing a rainbow coloured t-shirt with the message "Same Love" on the grid ahead of the start of the race. Three other drivers -- Mercedes' Valtteri Bottas, Ferrari's Carlos Sainz and Vettel's Aston Martin team mate Lance Stroll -- were also reprimanded for failing to remove their 'We Race As One' t-shirts in time for the national anthem.”

Jokes aside Had there been no tiebreaker, or had the competitors chose to keep the tie, this would have been the most people to ever tie for an Olympic medal. From what I read, the previous record for a tie for a single medal was 4 athletes at one of the early Olympics.

Wow! What a session that was last night! Just got a chance to watch it, and it did not disappoint TJ WR for Rojas , OR for Camacho-Quinn , surprise 100m gold for , and a shared gold HJ gold for I read through the debate about the shared gold medal in High Jump, and here’s my thoughts on the matter. I like the idea of a shared gold medal here. Both athletes had an opportunity to clear 2.39m in order to take the gold outright; neither was able to. Both also put forth and full and honest effort throughout the competition. They had been equally matched all night, and so I think it’s justified/right that they both a receive a gold medal since they both had the highest jump. If they had gone to tiebreaker and one of them managed to clear 2.39m then that’s an acceptable outcome as well. However, should have to have gone down to 2.37m to decide a winner, that would mean that someone who had the highest jump in the high jump doesn’t win the gold medal, and that doesn’t seem like a justifiable or correct outcome.

The diploma you get as a gold medalist.

Gold goes to Schaufelle

There’ll be a playoff for bronze. Might be up to 7 golfers playing for a medal.

Might have been the gold medal stroke for Schaufelle

Should be silver for . She put the required number of boats between her and
