I agree about the chances of swimming medals. If it was the same in track and field there would be, for example:
100 meters running forward.
100 meters running backwards.
100 meters hopping.
100 meters skipping.
I was even watching “artistic swimming” yesterday so why not the 100 meters Silly Walks"
On pundits I thought Laura Kenny was the absolute pick of the bunch. Forensic knowledge of the sport and the enthusiasm of a teenager. Fantastic. She’s probably still talking.
Watched France/US yesterday, basketball . The Americans were better. No contest.
But the hero of the show was Stephen Curry. Incredible. The number of successful throws from a long distance was phenomenal. Without him the score could have been different.
