Cool, didn't even know about it.
Could still get gold in track cycling.
it's sad the media thinks steffis calendar year golden slam is equal to serenas career golden slam.
yeah i cant believe that some are calling Serena the greatest tennis player of all time, that's just ridiculous

I permanently banned my 6 year old daughter from using the PS4 for mistakenly sending grief reports as it's too hard to watch or talk to her
Yesterday was a historic result, every day remaining will be a "down day" if you use it as a benchmark.

I think Australia + expected + gold should be a combination of words retired from the 2012 Olympics.
3 golds and a few others will be great, I know yesterday will be incredibly hard to match. What I'm not hoping for is a day with no gold

COME ON AINSLIE AND MURRAY
but then you miss the possibility of this. 100,000 aussies waited an hr and 10 mins to welcome a pom with a reception that moved the athlete to tears.
"British walker Chris Maddocks was awarded a rapturous reception from the Sydney crowd even though he was the last man to complete the 50 km race and finished more than an hour behind the winner.
Nearly 100,000 spectators cheered every agonising step that Maddocks took towards the line, giving the impression that he was the first and not the last man to enter the stadium.
Maddocks, 43, overcame a hamstring injury to complete the race and set a record as the first British track and field athlete to take part in five Olympics.
Exhausted by the searing heat, but overwhelmed by the warmth of the reception he received, Maddocks was clearly affected by the crowd.
"It was the most emotional thing I think I've ever experienced at the finish," he said.
As he entered the arena, loudspeakers played the song "I'm Gonna Be (500 miles)" by Scottish pop group The Proclaimers, which has the refrain "I would walk 500 miles and I would walk 500 more."
Maddocks eventually finished in a time of four hours 52 minutes and four seconds and became latest Olympian to be embraced by the Australian public for guts and perseverance.
Swimmers Eric Moussambani and Paula Barila Bolopa of Equitorial Guinea have been lauded for hanging on to record some of the slowest times in Olympic history.
The race was won by Robert Korzeniowski of Poland in three hours, 42 minutes and 22 seconds."

Very fairplay from Lee to give the point back to Lin Dan there. The judge was blind though, shuttle landed way wide.

30 years old graf
she retired that same year.
It's probably too physical demanding. I don't know why they don't have a hawk eye, they have instant replays, should be easy.
Definitely top 5, maybe even top 3.

Serena is almost 31 and she is still winning big lol they both great but Serena is slightly better. She is just a massive underachiever
Why is this even important. They're both legends in the game.30 years old graf

It will be considered soon. Most top players like Lin Dan and Lee have petitionned for it. Earlier this year some tournaments have been marred by bad calls.
John Dunbar

why does the badminton court have two lines at the end when you can hit past the first one?

Service isn't it?
John Dunbar
correct about everything
can't be, these guys are hitting it inside the box. only at the side of the court are they out if they go inside the box.
How long approximately does this race have left?

And still going....
She won't catch Graf in GS titles, but Evert/Navratilova might be getting nervous now.
Has to be the favorite at the US Open this year. She won't win another French, but depending on how her body holds up, I could actually see 4 more titles in her.
They were just talking about Rio, so we know that at the very least she will continue to play for a couple more years (Unless they meant doubles only).
