LOL. I like the instrumental. It just seems to go on a while, and just when you think it's done it has the last jaunty bit which I think is my favourite bit

Finn Butcher finishes 2nd in his canoe slalom semi final race, but that's enough to make the final and that last 4.

Hegge of Germany, Rohan of Czechia and Clarke of GB will be the other finalists, alongside Finn Butcher. There must be a decent chance of a NZ medal.

The crowd are furious as the French favourite is out.

Four Gold Medals for New Zealand. Only countries with much bigger populations and much bigger economies above us.

4? Can you see the future?

[sparky]

@MajorRage That one was so good that it counted as two!

To be fair to Laura Kenny, the GB women's spirit team set a new world record in the first round of qualification. A great start for them.
