Great women's 4 x 200M Free relay tonight

4/10s of a second between 1st ( China ) and 2nd ( US )

its simply insane- if Ledecky was 4 inches longer, she wins at touch.

Watched a lot of the live golf tonight. Justin Thomas had all pars. The rest of the US team finished under par.

So it was a subpar performance?

Is there a dumber looking Olympic sport than handball?
I can watch just about any sport in the Olympics, but can’t get with handball

I guess you’ve never watched race walking. It looks like a SNL skit, but it’s real.

USWNT must’ve exhausted - never seen Press that wobbly on the ball
Rose even had very uncharacteristic giveaways
Megan’s passes are heavy
No one is running down long passes
Hopefully they can gut his one out

well based on recent GK play, i dont particularly like the US chances. But tired legs, tired minds- anything can happen.

US advances - whew. Looks like Naehler saved 2

Yeah, she was awesome. Saved one late in the game, too.

Yeah I haven’t been a huge Naeher fan, but man did she step up
3 ok saves today
Outstanding
And I’m glad our takers - all who had been dragging for last part of 2nd and ET - all stepped up with very confident takes

now go hydrate

What a picture of her last PK save... wow...

still camera operators seem to be able to get good shots - what's the excuse for the official camera people? how did we not have multiple camera replay?
i would have liked a bit more visual evidence for the NUMEROUS offsides disallowals as well as the 'penalty'

I have to say, when Rapinoe stepped up to take the decisive PK an overwhelming calm came over me. I had been on pins and needles since the 85th minute, but it was like watching Morten Andersen come out to hit a game winning field goal
