I don’t get where China is winning all these golds.

And don’t about Jamaica. Bolt is gonna win them plenty of golds.

Mtl- What about your women’s crew and rowing team? I have a young friend who is rowing in the women’s double. The 8-women boat did not qualify, sadly.

(Welcome back. How was trip?)

Mongolia won their first ever Olympic gold this year—in Judo! It was a huge upset over the reigning world champ!
