Why is eurovisionsports so biased against archery? Nothing until tomorrow.

 

[Majine]

Must be so sad going up against Lee that early in the tournament.

 

[keit4]

Seriously, this olympics are already one of the worst i remember because the bad refereeing. What a shame.

 

[SolidSnakex]

It was because of a new swimsuits they introduced, but now they are banned so you don't see a lot of record breaking anymore.

Records still seem to be falling for women this year

The men have broken some records this year, but it doesn't seem to be at the same pace that the women are doing it at.

"It's now mathematically impossible for anyone to catch Germany, so they are certain to win Olympic team eventing gold even before their final rider has gone.

"That's because each team's score is comprised of the top three rounds from their five riders - you can drop the worst two. So even if Germany's last rider ploughed haplessly through every fence, they would simply take the best three from the four who've already gone, and nobody else can catch that score either."

So GB v NZ for Silver/Bronze then.

yes

and the NZ rider cocked up so that helps GB

 

[-Kees-]

German Brazil is never gonna end.

 

[ColossalLazy]

German Brazil is never gonna end.

I can watch them all day.

 

[masud]

Any Americans in competition right now?

 

[Nomad Blue]

yes

and the NZ rider cocked up so that helps GB

Hang on, the Swedes could still get a medal ahead of us(according to the NZ commentators)!

Brazil could not convert 8 (!) Matchpoints and lost the 2nd set.

That must be annoying.

 

[-Kees-]

Beach Volleyball dance interlude!

 

[killer_clank]

silver for gb.

 

[Meadows]

SILVER!

 

[dc89]

The Princes and Kate looked happy with that performance!

 

[Kobalty]

silver for gb.

I'm cautious to get excited for silver after yesterday!

 

[L1NETT]

Silver. Well done GB.

Well, with those swimsuits records were falling like cake, you could see three swimmers breaking the record in the same race. Records still fall because I think the new pools are faster, they build them in a way so swimmers can go faster.

 

[Brinbe]

Nice... Raonic killin this 2nd set.

And Lee Sung-Jin back up in Archery.

 

[nny]

(Archery)

Time for another of the Koreans

 

[modulaire]

highest quality BeachVolleyball match by far today.

 

[Jamie OD]

Gone to see boxing again. The view today is even better.

 

[bud]

this volleybal match is fun.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Tania came in sixth. First race she was twelfth, second she was ninth. Eventually: gold!

 

[Empty]

lee a bit fortunate to take that set.

 

[LTWheels]

Good silver. Being on the sitting down events!

 

[John Dunbar]

(Archery)

Time for another of the Koreans

I think it's the same one.

 

[Brinbe]

Blaaat, tens

Your lucky! I'd love to go to any event!

 

[L1NETT]

Your lucky! I'd love to go to any event!

I am going to the Athletics on August 7th! Seeing bolt. Excited

Did you apply for tickets?

 

[nny]

I think it's the same one.

I wasn't following earlier, but you're probably right, this is the 1/16 eliminatory; earlier was the 1/32.

 

[Diprosalic]

i want to play against a female chinese table tennis player, i wonder if i have the chance, i imagine the difference between genders in this game isn't as big as in other sports.

 

[Nomad Blue]

Could possibly pick up another medal(or two) in the individual 3 day event later. A lot of the top riders were clipping the rails a lot on their runs and the fences are higher next time out so could be lots of penalty points (and there's very little between the top few riders).

Bit daft that you can only have 3 riders from each country in it though, as you can finish 13th and not go through, whereas someone in 30th can!

 

[nny]

(Archery)

Georgia gets a set!

 

[Empty]

lee loses a set. what is this. great response by the georgian to going 4-0 down though.

 

[dc89]

That was a awesome save by Bulgaria in the men's volleyball.

 

[ColossalLazy]

Yay Brazil on the beach volleyball.

 

[L1NETT]

Good win for Lee. (archery) She is damn good.

 

[nny]

(Archery)

Ouch, that 8 was her end.

 

[Empty]

there we go. lee wins. too good.

 

[Meadows]

JUDO!

 

[Zaph]

The Koreans often look disappointed they didn't score an 11...

It was because of a new swimsuits they introduced, but now they are banned so you don't see a lot of record breaking anymore.

I thought you might be going for a troll, but holy shit they banned a swimsuit!

 

[szaromir]

Bulgarians tanked the 3rd set.

 

[Kikujiro]

If Lee's the second ranking, who's the first?

 

[masud]

Venus is stomping this Canadian chick... How old is she? 35?

 

[Brazil]

If Lee's the second ranking, who's the first?

Ki, her teammate that doesn't use glasses.
