Yes. She's got two good events coming up.
The Belgian girl who is leading is terrible at the 800m.

If anyone in this thread isn't much of a tennis fan you owe it to yourself to catch the 3rd set of the semifinal between Nadal and Del Potro that's about to start, it's been a fantastic match, and should be an entertaining finish.

Michelle Li up at 1:40 in badminton. If she wins that, she sets up a de facto Round of 32 match with the #9 girl from India.

Abel now sits in 3rd place after the 3rd dive. Two Chinese wimen ahead of her. This is the semi-finals. One more Canadian (Pamela Ware) competing but she is in around 16th spot.

Then, Nadal serving for 6-5 lead, quickly goes down 0-40 himself, but then fights back to save the game. Unbelievable!

I can't see either see guy having enough left to beat Andy in 5 sets, but this has been a great match for both.
