Kuwait is not being represented in these games due to them being suspended by the IOC. The athletes will be competing under the Olympic flag as independent athletes.

USA win the first gold medal of the games in, ironically, shooting (10m Women's Air Rifle). China got both Silver and Bronze

Pathetic moneygrabbing losers...give the footage to someone who can broadcast it correctly... EDIT: BBC is just as bad. They were very biased towards Daley and Goodfellow in the 10m platform event and were cheering every dive...at least they don't tape delay the games! lol

In 2009, Chris Mears had a 5% chance of living after rupturing his spleen. Now he's become a Team GB legend after winning gold in the 3m Synchro Springboard alongside Jack Laugher. Inspiring is the word.

Both Simone Manuel (USA) and Penny Oleksiak (Canada) tied for the gold in Women's 100m Freestyle! They both achieved Total Victory and are both rewarded for it!
Fun fact - There was also a tie for gold in this same event at the 1984 Olympics!

Fun fact - There was also a tie for gold in this same event at the 1984 Olympics! If NBC were running this they would have a fight to the death to determine the ultimate winner. LOL But seriously congratulations to both athletes! EDIT: There was also a tie for gold in the men's 50m Freestyle at the Sydney Olympics.

An Upset from 2 days ago in Fencing. as Park Sang Young (ranked 21th) Def. Geza Imre (Ranked 3rd, World Champion in Fencing in 2015) in a HUGE Comeback. But the best reaction comes from the commentators at 2:13. Edit: This is now removed by the IOC.

Canada's women's football team is in the semis again! Hopefully the ref doesn't screw us over again...
