    Holy hell. They just blew the opposition out of the water. Was barely a race.

                    Watching the women waiting for confirmation of silver and bronze was almost better viewing than the race.

                        No doubt about it.

                        The camaraderie in this sport is excellent

                            It's funny how most of the sports we win medals in, we are sitting down. Kayaking, Rowing, Cycling and Sailing.

                              One team member in the German team was beside herself, and the other was having a laugh. Completely different ways of showing emotion while waiting to hear the result.

                                  That was Paulina Paszek, the Pole/German. It was that close for the minor medals.

                                        Lydia Ko has picked up a shot on 3. Second place has dropped a shot on 3.

                                        Ko making crucial putts so far. Clutch putts to make par on 1 and 2 and now a tricky birdie putt on 3.
