The penultimate day.
Yesterdays highlights included Rai Benjamin, Spain in the soccer, Netherlands outlasting China in the women’s hockey gold medal match, Kenny Bednarek just continuing to run away from Coleman. USA claiming bronze in men’s volleyball. A few more medals for Australia.
But it was all about Raygun. She will be etched in Olympic history. For all the wrong reasons. Oh boy. Breaking probably won’t ever be in the Olympics again so she sure made a lasting impression.
Day 15 highlights:
Plenty of action. A huge night/morning ahead. Stingers in the gold medal match, can they do it? They already produced one of my highlights of these Olympics in their SF win. Jessica Hull in the women’s 1500m, Mackenzie Little in the javelin, medal chances in diving with Rousseau. We could and should secure a few more medals today.
Volleyball and basketball men’s gold medal matches. And of course the 4x400m relays on the track which are always fascinating viewing.
