    Golf is still a possibility, women boxer tonight who's reigning Olympic champion and guaranteed bronze, swimmer tomorrow who should win and 4oom runner during the week who has a chance, European silver medalist but this is a step up, same with a 1500m runner.

    Unfortunately the 2 women are up against fancied British runners, not to mention the rest of the world!

    Some outside chances in the swimming tonight.

    Incidentally, heard last night swimmer Duncan Scott is now Scotlands most decorated olympian with 8 medals. However, even though Sir Chris Hoy has 7 medals, 6 of them are gold and only 2 of Scott’s are gold. Sir Chris Hoy still the GOAT

    Funnily enough England’s Jason Kenny didn’t make it on to the list of Scotland’s most decorated olympians.
