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 .. Loďs 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

Thumbs down
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.

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
