    Congrats. That's great, Arielh ! I got the following video of the competition and that's the best available. The target is not view-able.

    Anna     Korakaki won Greece's first gold medal of the Rio Olympics on Tuesday, beating her German opponent Monika Karsch by 8 points to six in the women's 25 meter pistol final.



    This video contains the Produnova vault performed by Elena Produnova who gave her name to it by performing it perfectly.



    Whay are not the videos of the olympics game uploaded on the net ? Is it for safety reasons or some other reasons ?

    Money. They want to sell them, not give them away.

    That really spoils the sport. I like watching them live or at least that day or the next day. After that I loose interest. I tend to forget them. :p

    Bradley Wiggins win gold in the cycling to make him the top British cycling medallist with 8 golds (not this olympics), beating Hoy's previous record of 7. Hopefully more medals from the cycling today. Unfortunately last week the strenuous & treacherous road race course put pays to any GB medals there
    Another gold in the rowing puts GB into 3rd place on the medal table :)

    Andy Murray (GB) assured of a Silver or Gold in Men's Singles tennis. Will play either Rafael Nadal or Juan Martin del Potro. (He won't do it sitting down, lol!)

    I THINK that in beachvolleyball it will be dutch team against dutch team! Which means we will have at least one team in the semi finals! but we will also lose a team.

    I am now watching Synchronized swimming -Women's duet. Greece has a team and they performed, they got a high score. I hope we will reach the final! Now France's team performs.

    farmingfreebird you are right about beach volley. Well now you just want the best to win so they can win the semi-final too!

    True! We sort of hope that nummerdor's team will drop out, because he's oldest, and the other team has just a little bit more oohmph in them.

    And

    Dorian van Rijsselberghe has won the windsurfing GOLD! whoohoo. (forgot the class name again)
