Well done ladies. A strong finish.
My god Dame Lisa is one tough women. Clearly headed and the Germans were pulling away but she gritted her teeth and refused to be beat and dug in real hard to get narrowly in front and doggedly hung on.
Lisa willed us over the line first. Great effort by the girls in the face of an immense challenge by the Germans

Lids still two behind Metraux who is in the clubhouse. She's running out of holes to catch up. Korda is closing, two shots back, tied for 4th

We are now on 12 medals including a bronze in sailing. Does Lisa Carrington compete in other events in addition to K4?
K1 at least. We have two in that class and could go 1-2
More? Yes please!!! Iwant more!!

Ko bogeyed the last so she is -5 in third and three shots off the lead.

Putting on my other hat and supporting the Swiss women’s beach volley team. Easy on the eye and leading the Canucks.

@Dodge Gold for GB's Ella Aldridge just now in the Women's Kite.

Anyone for another gold medal
-
Ellesse Andrews wins the Women's Keirin.
It's Gold Medal number 5 for New Zealand!!!!
-
Just thinking of all the NZers who are going to be waking up soon and learning of two Gold Medals overnight.
Five million people, five Olympic Gold medals and these games aren't done.
-
NZ 12th in the medal table.

The golf is interesting with no cut line, so it, like LIV doesnt follow the traditioanal format: it would be interesting to see how many of those beyond the "usual" cut line climbed into the top 10 say.
Do players get ranking points from this?
On the wall climbing, I reckon they should have to start a metre back from the wall rather than pretty much on the wall with grips and foot hold ready to boost up.
