Just have this gut feeling that the Chinese lad will pip Peaty tomorrow in the final.

 

Its crazy how they have closed the gap so quickly given just a couple of years back he seemed to be winning at a canter

 

Just hope he medals but seems like 4 or 5 could fancy it 

Not sure that they have closed the gap more than Peaty has lost just a tiny bit of his edge - he still has 14 set times faster than anyone else, Qin included.

 

If he brings back some of his old form, he'll beat all comers at a canter. But I guess we'll find out tomorrow.

Be a lot of Adam Peaty hype tomorrow.

Why didn't FIFA ban Bielsa and deduct Leeds points when he admitted to spying on every team in The Championship's training sessions a couple of years ago?

Great Britain's Kimberly Woods wins bronze K1 kayak single final.

Marchand has absolutely hammered this.

Balls of steel from Murray and Evans.

[Fox in the North]

Murray and Evans win after being X match points down!

[VLC86]

Madness in the men’s doubles. No idea how these pair got through.

[StanSP]

I switched over to the swimming thinking they'd comfortably lost

 

Fair play for hauling the win back from the amount they were down.

Were terrible first set, somehow managed to sneak the 2nd and then saved 5 matchpoints and won it with their first match point.

 

Can't believe they won that.

3rd 4th place in a row for Max Lichfield at the Olympics. Not sure how you could ever live with that. 

[StanSP]

Really not a fan of the American commentator on Eurosport. 

 

Here comes the SEM-EYE FINAL! 

 

'what makes this really fun is that we have 16 swimmers trying to make the final 8!!!'. Yep, just like other races of the same type

Fantastic comeback with Evans .

Talking of comebacks, Australia women in the football have come back from 2-5 down to win 6-5.

Wow, last minute winner too. 

 

Just seen Brazil Women Leicester'd themselves too. 

 

1-0 up going into stoppage time and they lose 2-1.

we need an academic paper on teary, piano-soundtracked compilations of well wishes from friends and family before big sporting events as a byproduct of British anxiety over our country's relative economic and political decline.

Dial it down a bit BBC

[SouthStandUpperTier]

[RowlattsFox]

Lots of respect for Peaty but sick of hearing about him on BBC coverage. 

[Super_horns]

Adam Peaty better win after all this fuss !

[StanSP]

Reckon Qin wins it with Peaty 2nd.

[PhillippaT]

[StanSP]

Martinenghi wins it. So close.
