And it’s GOLD in the 4 x 100 mixed medley relay in the pool. And a new world record! 🥇
The race was men and women swimming together as a team. That’s our fourth Gold in the pool.

We had a great European Championships, so to carry this through to the Olympics has been brilliant. Belief, that’s what the O’s need this season 🥇

I like these mixed events and trying to work it all out as it goes on.
In the swimming when the american guy was trying to catch the girls it looked like Jaws heading towards the youngsters who were frantically trying to reach the safety of the beach.

I've just scoured the internet and seen a few vids of fish jumping during the rowing but haven't seen the one I saw. The one I saw didn't fly like those ones. it only come out of the water a couple of inches and it was huge in comparison, and a different type of fish. I saw fish jumping out of the water during the Triathlon medal ceremony!

And it’s GOLD for Charlotte Worthington in the women’s freestyle BMX 🥇 Watched that this afternoon, absolutely superb. I remember back in the day doing similar tricks to that on my bicycle, not intentionally of course, usually riding home from the pub.

Baseball now, how many countries play that to a high level? Japan really want those extra medals don't they, I spose I can't blame them.
They'll be snail and frog eating in the next Olympics.

If anyone is still up, the skateboarding is well worth watching. The British girl is quite something else on a skateboard.
Edit: this girl is amazing! She has no coach, she gets all her ‘tricks’ off YouTube.

That Whittaker needed to be brought down a peg or two. He deserves a silver though.
How did Frazer Clarke get on?

It looks like no Golds in the Athletics this year. All our best hopes have been injured, nothing in the rowing and our cyclists are no longer the best in the world. We could have done so much better, it’s our swimmers who have saved it this time.
