I missed the golf! Bummer, I love watching golf on Sunday mornings
Apparently Ceccon slept in a park to cool down because there’s no AC in the Village
As in the case with USA Swimming, the USWNT advanced to the semifinals (1-0 a.e.t.) while the U-23 USMNT were pummeled in the quarterfinals (0-4).
Rodman’s goal was a good on. To cut to her left foot then let it fly was beautiful.
Japan played that game not to lose with their alignment. I am glad they didn’t get rewarded with a PK shootout.
Idk what to do with my hands
Shout out to Carlos Yulo, Zhen Qiwen, and Remco Evenepoel. Huge strides for these athletes in their respective sports for their countries.
Cycling is already huge in Belgium. They had Eddy Merckx.
China have had a very good tennis tournament and also came very close to winning gold won in the mixed doubles.
Yup. But Remco did the double, not an easy feat. Pretty sure he was the first, too.
