Rowing golden girls Caroline and Georgina Evers-Swindell have won Olympic Games gold again, pipping Germany in a double sculls photo finish at Shunyi by one hundredth of a second. [link]

just watched the rowing live on TV , and was so excited when they showed the photo finished and found out they had won :dance:

But wow, watching Mahe Drysdale race, and being overtaken right at the end, felt sad for him, especially after seeing how exhausted he was at the end. He did really well getting bronze,especially as he was sick… he collapsed at the end just after winning NZ’s first medal this olympics [link]
