Still super impressive considering she was almost unable to compete due to an injury

The two Chinese were better but I thought the British girl got a generous score. She lost alot of height.

Rosie was unable to do her more difficult routine(s). Had to go with routines with lesser degree of difficulty because of her injury.

Super impressive result with that consideration

Same thought here, British girl did her last few jumps pretty low. My initial thought was that Rosie was better, but I watch this sport maybe once every four years, so I’m pretty much an expert!

I've always wanted to see a soccer ref call a handball on player who grabs the ball when they fall to try to force the ref into a foul call, and now I have!

That was amazing to watch, love this team and the fight they show. Ashley Lawrence is unbelievable and I wish she would get a bit more attention. Go Canada!

These mixed events might be my favorite thing of the Olympics.

Seeing men go against women is incredibly entertaining lmao

I think the most impressive part of Labbe's shoot out is she did right after having her legs chopped out by a Brazilian. Which, I think, given the game state, probably warranted a far more severe penalty than it got.

Canada's Women's 4 x 100m Medley Relay Team win the heats and will head into the Finals as the #1 seed.

Canada's Men's 4 x 100m Medley Relay Team finish 9th in the heats and fail to qualify for the Finals. HOWEVER, Brazil gets DQ'd, pushing Canada into the 8th and final spot for the Finals!

The women are just built different.

That was quite the 10 km track race. Canada's Mohammed Ahmed came in 6th place.

It might have been from the lack of sleep but I was laughing my @$$ off.

7 dudes chasing 1 female...it's like the track version of The Bachelorette.
