Paris Olympiad 2024

Toby Roberts with a storming performance in the Boulder and Lead climbing final.
Guaranteed medal but what colour?

Watching the Climbing and Toby Roberts of GBR has just guaranteed a Silver and may yet get Gold. This is what I love about the Olympics - watching a different sport. The crowd watching is enormous

It's GOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLDDDDDDDDDD

Climbing's a hobby, it shouldn't be in the Olympics.

EdiT: We won a gold.... what an excellent sport

Wanking is a hobby.

Come on IOC get your co.... sorry I meant finger out

In the Heptathlon how it's been explained is that KJT needs to beat Thiam by 8 seconds.

KJT's best 800m time is 6 secs faster than Thiam. So it could be a close finish.

It's a world record fest in the Women's Sprint qualifying. They are all going ballistic.

It will require a herculean effort from KJT to pull it back.
Utterly herculean.
