    I wonder if they knew GB didn’t have a good chance of a medal so decided he’d be better resting for tomorrow’s relay instead

    Just watched the mixed 400m relay. I knew Bol was special, but that was something else :emoticon-0104-surpr

    Bol vs McLaughlin in the 400m hurdles has the potential to be the highlight of the Olympics, at least where the athletics is concerned.

    Been watching the final day of the Olympic golf on Saintsplayer (NZ Sky Sports channel 6 if anyone is interested). The connection has been iffy at times but some great stuff being played. John Rahm -19 with 9 holes to play is leading.
    Tommy Fleetwood is 3 behind in second place and Schauffele is third, 1 behind Tommy.
    Made more interesting by them all being in the final group.

    Scheffler (USA) has come out of the chasing pack and is now leading with -19 with one hole to play.
    Fleetwood is second on -18 with 3 holes to go.
    Matsuyama is third on -17 with 2 to play.

    Gave up watching this on the kiwi channel as it kept dropping.
    Now watching on a USA channel and the ****ing adverts are driving me crazy.
    The leader is just about to hit his second shot to his final green and they **** off for adverts as he is standing over the ball. :emoticon-0121-angry

    I remember that some American tv mogul asked if football could be in 4 quarters to get adverts in. FIFA said no.
