Came out in the last couple of days that the USADA broke the global code by not suspending drugged up athletes between 2011-2014. Certainly doesn't fill you with confidence of what you're seeing.

The shots have to hit with a certain amount of power. There are sensors on the socks.I don’t understand the scoring, to me it looked like our girl got body shots in but they never counted, yet the Turkish girl seemed to get loads.

Yeah; Ireland (not Northern Ireland) had a team running in that relay. They finished just behind the GB & NI team.But in the relay n Eurosport the commentator said GB (didn’t say NI) and Ireland were separate, unless it was just a mis pronouncing

It is, 3rd most medals but down in 6th on gold.
It's good that we're involved at the highest level across a wide range of sports though. As a sporting nation we've diversified and come a long way.

Gb medics have helped save a Uzbek boxing coach backstage as they had a defibrillator.
Good work.
