Former Hawkeye Brittany Brown won her 200m heat in the fourth fastest time overall, but the favorite has now dropped out due to injury. 
There's a reason the French still eat baguettes and not sliced supermarket bread
Scottie with a closing round 62 to put himself in gold medal position. Dude is, by all accounts, one of the nicest guys on the tour. But he's a stone cold killer on the golf course.

The iron shots Scottie was hitting out that rough were awesome and his putter was reliable, Rahm and Xander imploded
Scottie with a casual 62 - 29 on the back - to win the gold.
Rahm stood on 11 tee with a 4 shot lead and will not even medal.

Fantastic work and thanks for taking one for the team! Scotty wins the gold! That was an awesome final round for him!
Best 9-hole score Ol' Doodle has ever shot was 36...and it took about 4 miracles to do it. Doodle can't even begin to comprehend 29 from the tips in the closing 9 with a f---ing gold medal on the line.
I take personal satisfaction knowing it was a combination of Rahm collapsing and Scottie playing out of his mind.
USA wins the women’s cycling road race. Awesome last 20k to watch.
Interesting to see the competitors give up on the gold and just decide to duke it out for silver. If they had worked together they may have been able to reel her in but they spent the last two miles jockeying for position.
I had the French police hassle him on 9.
NBC just ran a Nike ad featuring Sha'carri Richardson with the tag line "Winning is not for everyone." Truth in advertising, I guess.
Too many red flags for me, like requiring his caddy to be Christian, and escalating the traffic thing. He might be surface nice, like a lot of golfers. He’s no Zach Johnson.
First time we have ever lost the swimming 4x100 medley. Fits with the rest of the swimming meet.
Oof, gotta disagree with you here. Every golfer, caddie, worker said he is a great guy. I think having a caddie with the same mindset could be really important in such an individual sport like golf.
Zach Johnson is precisely what you just described. Totally surface nice.
I don’t know. The Zach Johnson Foundation is pretty fantastic. He does a lot for it too.
Not quite what I was thinking. I'm just saying he may want someone with the same mentality as him. Could be said about any other religion or anything they deeply believe in.
They knew they couldn’t catch her so silver was the target. Going to be a sprint finish and being out front in a sprint is death. It turned into a mini indoor track bike sprint at that point.
Kopecky was a favorite and world class sprinter so the other two wanted no piece of being her lead out for a sprint.

We’re a strange country, a silver medal is awesome.
I’m sure lots of guys have their own foundations that aren’t the nicest people. Lots of people really like Zach. I’m not the only person who thinks he’s a little fake.
That 100m was insane! 20 yr drought over. Gold, with a photo finish.
That's our first Gold in the 100m in 20 years? I feel old.
Table for 2 felons please? Oh that's reserved for President Trump...
GFY soccer loser...
Lyles was last out of the blocks and that usually isn't good in the Olympics. One hell of a race.
Crazy 100 finish, would be cool to see Lyles get the 200 also
OMG! That was insane!!!
At no point live was I looking at NL. I was looking at Kenny and the dude who got 3rd as well as the Jamacian. I thought the Jamacian got 1st for sure.
