Hope Solo is a bitter cunt, I'm fucking delighted she was on the losing side.

Also, I really hope Justin Gatlin loses, dude is a disgrace. He has no shame.

Womens Tennis Medal Ceremony; without a Williams on the podium.

He is sticking with the retirement, and moving on to something else. He sounds rather convincing. What a career, and legacy Michael Phelps leaves.

Bolt for the win, just cruising past Justin in the last 40m. And a world record to Wayde van Niekerk in the 400, first man to win from lane 8.

Best Olympic tweet Gold medal to @FillWerrell: Just been watching Olympic Ladies Beach Volleyball and there's already been an injury...but I should be OK by Monday.
