Annalise Murphy in great form so far in the sailing (laser radial), I remember she was so unlucky in London finishing 4th. Hope she keeps it up
Boxers have been disappointing so far, shock loss for Barnes and then the whole doping cloud hanging over them. Hopefully Conlan and Taylor live up to their billing

Whitlock takes Bronze! Rugby 7s get into the Semis beating Argies on golden goal too - great game that.
2 golds 4 bronzes
Not a bad day, eh!!
Duncan Scott & Andrew Willis go tonight in finals. Willis has a decent chance of a medal.

Even fucking Kosovo has a medal and it's not even a proper country.

That diving competition was brilliant. Farce with the Mexicans though.
Turned into a decent day for us, bar Piers Morgan being all over my Twitter thanks to various people digging him out for the clickbait garbage he's been spouting.

Also, I love how into it the commentators are getting, specifically in the diving and gymnastics but also in the swimming and rugby, full on cheering the Brits on at points.

Watching the 77kg Weightlifting and an Armenian lifter just looks to have snapped his elbow. Looked nasty af. Been watching all these weightlifting and events and the Olympic lifts look so fucking dangerous. Definitely wouldn't be doing those lifts on my own.

Kazakhstan lifter Rahimov just went balls deep with his last lift and took the gold away from 2012's gold winner Xiaojun beating Xiaojun's world record to do so. Both totaled 379kg but Rahimov weighs less so takes gold.

This Penny Oleksiak looks something special. Just qualified second (sub 53s I think) for 100m free behind the WR holder. Already has a bronze and a silver, too. At 16.
More importantly, defending champion and bona fide 2012 hotty Ranomi Kromowidjojo is also through.

Celebrations from that Kazakh were amazing too.
Seen a still image of that elbow injury and it looks fucking gruesome.

Grainger's 4th silver to go with her London 2012 gold. Great career. Unlucky as they were winning 3/4 of the way through but a good result regardless.
