I can’t say I’m a fan of the format. Anything where you need a spreadsheet to work out who won kinda ruins the drama. Thankfully this is the first and last time this format is gonna be used. It’s basically impossible for a speed climber to win the combined. Watching the women’s now.Crazy ending in the men’s climbing final. Tense stuff, thoroughly enjoyed it. Ondra went from potentially a gold medal to 6th after Schubert overtook his high point in the final lead climb.
I think that’s the reason, yeah. It used to be the same in judo if I remember correctly.Can somebody explain why both boxers who lose a semi get a bronze and other losing semi finalists have a play off for a bronze. Does any sport beside boxing get this 'special' treatment? Is it because they are not to have another three rounds of fisticuffs 'cos it ain't good for yer?
Yeah I love her. I remember her giving an interview where she revealed that the women riders had been banned from shaving their pubes. Apparently that’s a performance issue.Laura Kenny is my favourite Olympian.
No arrogance, humble, yet confident in what she can do.
Definitely. Always a smile on her face whatever happens, she'll be 32 at the next Olympics so likely to still be very competitive and good chance to become our greatest ever Olympian.Laura Kenny is my favourite Olympian.
