Looks like Canada going for a team fencing bronze.

[CofR]

Canada will go for Bronze in the Women’s Team Foil Fencing at 11:10

Canada advances to the Final in Women’s Eight Rowing.

Just a small correction to my post above, Iga is still playing for bronze so not eliminated.

Shady Elnahas sure got a lot of hype on cbc yesterday with video packages etc, only to go out in the first round this morning. That’s really too bad as he was looking to better his disappointing 5th in Tokyo. I feel for him as it seems Judo can be a bit of a crapshoot.

Duh. Free with xfinity, but that may have been a perk as I switched in the last year.

Lorenzo Musetti wins the first set 7-5 over Alex Zverev. Come on Lorenzo, we're all counting on you!!

big day for FAA again! Singles and Mixed Doubles in the same day!

Removed confusing tweet from CBC.

Carlos Alcaraz is into the semi-finals defeating Tommy Paul 6-3 7-6. That second set was excellent tennis from both guys. Charlie awaits the winner of Felix vs. Casper Ruud.

I think CBC should clarify that Sanford's next bout is the Semi Finals. Tweet makes it sound like he's already in the gold medal match...

I edited my post as you are right, it is confusing.

Lorenzo!! Forza Italia!! He defeats Zverev 7-5 7-5. Nice!!

Does anybody know somewhere that I can see which channel is showing what? The CBC app is all centered around streaming, I can't see anything that says where to watch on TV and I'm getting tired of flipping between CBC/TSN/SN/SN1 trying to find things.

Felix breaks Ruud (great return game from FAA) and is serving at 4-3 in the opening set.

Edit: Consolidates the break.

[dash_pinched]

Felix takes the opening set 6-4. Playing some fine tennis again today, to be honest, I think he was a little better against Medvedev yesterday. Needs to keep his foot on the gas and up that first serve percentage a tad.

[dash_pinched]

Felix breaks to start set 2. Really keeping Ruud off-balance today.

Edit: Consolidates the break.

Sadly no, I mainly rely on the guide on my Tv to guess what will be shown at which time. I really wish that CBC did a better job of making it clear what events are going to be televised and where.

[dash_pinched]

Oh man, a rough service game from Felix and we're back on serve in set 2.
