    <p>Nice fightback by Lydia to win silver in the golf. Think it was obvious pretty early on that no one was going to catch Park.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>7th for Hewitt in the triathlon, bit gutted for her, really wanted her to get up after everything she has been through, but on form she wasn't really a medal contender.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>5th for the K4 girls. They were 3rd at halfway mark but got mown down at the end. Promising signs though.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Is there anything else to go??</p>

            Just watching the soccer.<br><br>
            Commentator says Kraut keeper is "former youth International". <br><br>
            Que?<br><br>
            This IS a youth international...

                Sarkar going to penalties.<br><br>
                Brazil did everything but score a goal.<br><br>
                Betting on the Krauts in a shoot out though.

                  <p>If Willis wins today I wonder how many athletes will re-think their extracurricular activities. At the very least we'll have to remove the Willis auto-word-change.</p>

                        She's not the prettiest athlete there, but I've had a thing for Blanka Vlasic since the Sydney Olympics
