Olympics always make me aware of some absolute superstars in certain sports that I'd never heard off previously. Leon Marchand comes into that category. 

He’s an absolute freak. Won the 200m butterfly like that (and in a faster time than Phelps ever did), then he’ll likely win the 200m breaststroke later tonight. I’ve never seen anything like it.

Plenty of swimming to get stuck into tonight. Even the semi-finals are being contested very competitively.

This Olympics has been cracking so far, properly up there with 2008 and 2012. Need a couple more ‘moments’ and it’ll be elite. 

Yeah, got into it more than I thought I would. Not even a week in so bound to be more 'moments'. Athletics hasn't even got started yet!

Swimmers always seem like nice guys too. In fact, most of the British olympians seem good people who have worked their arse off. Compared to footballers :ph34r:,  sound like my dad saying that last comment.

Timings have helped, perfect evening entertainment.

Alcaraz and Nadal beaten in the doubles.


French fans enjoying the swimming tonight.

I like Alcaraz and Nadal, but gives us more of a chance of winning the gold lol

Unfortunately it's the USA's Fritz & Paul in the QF for Murray & Evans. That's going to be a really tough ask.

Yeah, just hope that because it is an unusual pairing we can make a game of it

Just gets very excited.

 

Why are they doing the high show now ?!

I'm glad I've got Eurosport. Coverage seems better in terms of punditry, and it's a few seconds ahead of BBC... 

 

Oh and Laura Woods is on their highlights show...

Have they just waited ages for this race or have BBC just not shown stuff?
