That is really such a shame for Beth Shriever, barely believable really. Yesterday she was in a class of her own.

You reckon? We won 29 Golds in 2012. France have 11 now, so it'll be quite an acheivement for them to match that especially as their medal machine has finished his games now.
Not unfairly I don't think.
The French men, finishing 1,2,3 chose the inside lanes. The Frenchman's girlfriend did the same and won. I'm not sure why Beth wanted lane 6.
She’d won by a distance from that lane in her past 6 races or so?
She hadn't raced against Sakakibara, who also won all of here races.
Beth won all her races by outclassing everyone at the start. I don't think it would have mattered which lane she was in for those. But you have to prepare for being in a tight start, and all the local evidence suggested that the inside lanes were best.

You could try to represent the FI in the Commonwealth Games.
Question: some of the NI golfers like Mcilroy and others are representing
Ireland in golf. Is there a reason why Ireland and not GBR? Or do they have a choice
as to which team they can belong? Not an issue of course, just interested to know
the background.

Under the terms of the Good Friday Agreement, Northern Irish sportspeople can choose whether they represent RoI or the UK where appropriate

Fair play to the Romanians in that race, they went hard and fast and never looked back. Deserved that gold.Women's Eights - Bronze!
Now the Men's Eight, for which we are apparently favourites.
Honestly what’s the point of the f***ing boat race if we don’t win this
