Yeah good on her, that's a massive achievement. Her coach was pretty pumped too.
There was a good story on her on SBS news tonight. she was stuck in Malaysia with no government support, training with bamboo sticks and water jugs. President Duterte had previously poked fun at her (not surprising given the man he is) as she sought financial support on social media. she'll probably return home a hero, and of course those who wouldn't support her before will now want a piece of the action.

That's what the Olympics are all about, well they should be.

This is after they flogged Australia the other day (and also demolished Korea as expected).

They are a force to be reckoned with.. they were actually down to 5 in the last minute or so..they play Fiji next..but without Gaston Revol they will struggle. Gee the US must be pissed giving up a 21 point lead against GB..
I look forward to the women..

He didn’t get a full mouthful. Luckily he had his mouthguard in and I was a bit sweaty … I have been bitten once on the chest before at the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games. But c’mon man, this is the Olympics.

The New Zealand boxer dodged a chomp from Youness Baalla, his 22-year-old Moroccan opponent, who seemed to be channelling Mike Tyson (though not in the way a professional boxer might usually aspire to) in the heavyweight match.

I was watching that fight live and could hardly believe my eyes when it happened - a straight out ear munch!
