Injuries and mental and physical setbacks can happen in every sport. Whole careers have been derailed.

Gymnastics is definitely more dangerous but at the end of the day bolt performed and biles didn't.

Now if she come back and dominate in LA I think shes in that conversation

Again, the twisties is not an injury. It’s a full on inability to safely perform. There’s no comparison in sprinting. Furthermore, the shelf life of a female gymnast is much shorter than that of a sprinter. She’s already an anomaly being in 3 Olympics and winning gold at 27 which is ancient in the sport where your teenage years are your prime. Expecting her to just waltz into the Olympics at 31 is to deny reality of the sport.

The Swiss beach volleyball women were in the zone. The American woman played a little too sloppy.

Oh well

They lost to a country that landlocked by others countries.

[Rev Leon Lonnie Love]

gold medal bout for the 60kg women's boxing. this should be intertaining

 

[MikelArteta]

Furthermore, the shelf life of a female gymnast is much shorter than that of a sprinter.

I'd say for both it's 2 Olympics lucky to get three

Just that alot of gymnasts make the Olympics at like 15,16

 

[KnowledgeDropper]

I don’t know if y’all agree, but tomorrow seems kind of light in terms of stuff I’m checking for… A few interesting track events, plus I may watch the odd field hockey (Netherlands vs Argentina should have some good looking women) and beach volleyball, but I may actually be able to get some work done instead tomorrow. Thursday through the end looks nice

I used to play Water Volleyball back in high school
