A jumpin' gump from Bama is making the high jump interesting. One of the two defending gold medalists is suffering with kidney stones and looks unlikely to repeat.

Just the Olympics website really.

We are probably favored in 4x400 M/W, Basketball M/W

We still have athletes in Womens Vball, Men's Breaking, Men's High Jump, Womens 1500m & Marathon, Men's 5k, Women's 76kg Wrestling

China still has athletes in Womens 81+kg Weightlifting (Chinese girl is WR holder), Artistic Swimming, Women's 75kg Boxing, Men's Keiren Cycling (2 Chinese in Repechage round), Women's modern Pentathlon, Women's marathon.

I see China getting definitely 2 more Gold, possibly another with boxing

Fisher of the US takes bronze in the 5000 m, but he (and the rest of the field) had nothing for Norway's Ingebrigtsen, who wins gold.

2X bronze. He looked to be getting dropped 1-2 laps out, then turned it on the last 200-300M

That was exciting watching Fisher go from 7th to 3rd in the final stretch.
Jakob from Norway was determined not to lose gold like the 1500

Just really great strategy and discipline to know he needed to just let those guys go even without much race left, knowing he could reel them back in. Ran his race and it paid off with another medal

Graph is missing some events, including artistic swimming (likely gold for China). They should finish with 40.

That sucks, although I gotta say I really felt bad for the girl who lost it. She was up on the mat with her flag and then just freezes looking at the new score

And this is why swimming and track will always be my favorite Olympic sports. Never have trusted purely subjective judging.

Is the tie breaker number of previous misses?

Misses at the previous mark, I think. Then the height below that one. And so on.

McEwen can't clear 2.38. Apparently contest not over?

Not sure what the heck is happening.
