    There is one more routine left, but as it stands now USA is ranked #2 in Artistic Swimming. We haven't qualified in Artistic Swimming the last few Olympics, and we nearly didn't qualify this time. US hasn't won an Artistic Swimming medal in decades. Now we are looking at silver.

    That 1500 m race was fucking hilarious and Hocker’s interview after stated it perfectly

    Really really looking forward to weightlifting tomorrow. A lot of people are saying this is the USA's best weightlifting squad in 60 years. We have a good shot at getting at least two medals.

    US hasn't won a weightlifting gold medal since 2000, and we haven't won a men's weightlifting gold medal since 1960. Hampton Morris and Olivia Reeves are going to kill it.

    Watching this race walk event. Interesting, but they do look absolutely ridiculous.

    British women’s top golfer grew up two streets away from me, so I tend to follow her in the Olympics despite having no interest in golf.

    Anyway she’s had a nightmare and ended up in the water almost immediately today lol

    What is that stick thing that people pound on the ground before events start?

    They said it is a part of French theatre tradition. Someone pounds a stick to let the audience know the show is starting.
