Gutted for Adam Peaty, so close to Gold
but big up to Mona McSharry second in her heat :dance:

We got gold! Yay :cheer2:

Congrats :laugh:

Shame about Peaty but Murray and Evans in the tennis was incredible - 9-4 down in the deciding tie break and won the next seven points to win 11-9

Yeah

I was so happy for Murray and then I was assuming Adam would be victorious

Just watching the synchronised diving featuring Tom Daley ..


They are all marvellous and the entry to the water has improved immeasurably over the years


Not keen on a Brit born in London representing France though and his partner doesn’t sound very French either .. Loïs Szymczak

The diving was superb, the Chinese deserved Gold and the UK deserved second


The French pair got a bye into the competition, not sure why...they were pretty dire

Meet Imane Khelif, a boxer who was banned from the Women's World Box
Championships in 2023 because he is a man.

However, Khelif is being allowed to compete in women's Olympic boxing in
Paris.

Of course nothing will be done
 

it's just another reason not to watch the olympics

Why would he bother?

One way or another he loses

he is a biological man fighting biological women, thats a nailed on gold medal

Yeah but he won’t get any credit for winning hence my initial comment

Another gold medal for us!:amazed:

i don't watch boxing so do i care if a trans person competes in that, no i don't care


LT doesn't watch the olympics, yet he seems to be able to find every tiniest bit of negative news he can find on the troll fishwife social media site X/Twitter

I am amazed the male boxers haven’t sorted him out …
