This bitch is so good. Her moves are so precise.

[Cz!]

Simone is such a beast. Just wow.

[vacance]

Amazing women's beach volleyball game between Australia and The Netherlands. Congrats, Australia

Spain v US for men's should be intense

[Mezik]

I'm so proud of our Canadian athletes, we were only anticipated to win 14(?) medals and I think we're gonna surpass those expectations.

We have a girl in fencing right now who just made it to the quarter finals, maybe she'll have an underdog story and win Canada their first medal even in fencing?!

[Mezter]

The US already slay those medals as usual

[TheLastChord]

Some of these waterpolo players...

Why don't you all polo in my waters?

[izzy™]

I was just watching the Argentina vs Brazil rugby competition and wow they have some hot players

[simmnfierzig]

Philip Heintz

German record and looking good to reach the final
Maybe there is still a small chance to get a medal in Swimming

[Benjamin]

OMG Clark snatching #1 in the Canoe Slalom from outta nowhere, he's guaranteed at least Silver now.


I love this sport/rowing in general so much, I really should get into it tbh.

Hannes Aigner 0.03s behind bronze

That 2 second penalty for the Czech guy saving Joe's Gold Medal.



(I hate the Olympics for making me stan for Britain. Once every 4 years is too much patriotism for me.)

[Chemist]

Canoe/Slalolm is so excting

That was a great final. So many daddies

[J a y]

The pool is still green

It actually looks cool though, and it's safe. Suits Brasil.

More Male Diving now.


Team USA slaying in more than one way than one, again.


Wait, male diving on BBC1 and male gymnastics on BBC4, what'd I watch. (Nile Wilson is so cute)

[Bro]

Can anyone brief me on this 'final 5' thing? I know the US gymnastics team is composed of 5 athletes but what's up with the branding? Have yet to watch gymnastics because the IOC are really coming for the asses of those uploading vids on YouTube

[simmnfierzig]

WTF was that stupid score for the Germans in diving

Wasn't perfect but certianly a lot better than 6.5 in execution and 7.5 in synchro

[Benjamin]

BBC cutting away from the Diving to show female Judo.


Glad Sally Conway managed to get Bronze though, she was robbed of Gold or Silver in her fight earlier.

The US women's gymnastics coach, Martha Karolyi, is legendary and accredited with transforming the US into the powerhouse it is today. She's retiring after this Olympics, so the girls named themselves the Final Five in her honor. Also, it happens to be the last year with five gymnasts per team. Starting in Tokyo each team will only have four gymnasts. So it worked out to be a pretty cool name.

Too bad it's not China up next for the diving, they need to be the ones getting distracted by all this drama surrounding Mexico, not the US.


The judges did treat Mexico like trash though, they should've got a second dive, especially since they were told to go back up to the diving boards.

[Benjamin]

Amazing! First ever Olympic Gold diving medal for Britain.


Leon Taylor is such a trash commentator though. He rips every other country to shreds and screams about how great the Brits were every time, getting so annoying.
