This shooting final is killing me

Oh My lands, the canoe
Got robbed of a Gold there ?
That is robbery for Rutter in the final. She definitely hit that
Team GB fecked over by the judges. Where is VAR when you need it.
That’s a bit ridiculous that you can’t request a replay in the shooting!
Urgh, GB screwed out of a gold in the shooting
How can they not have a replay in this?
That is a ridiculous finish, how can you decide that without replay
The first video clearly showed a hit, it’s pathetic to decide an olympic gold like that
If they have a VAR system in place for shooting why wouldn't you bring it to the Olympics?!
Anyone care to explain what happened in the shooting final? I was no watching this
Shoot off for Gold, British shooter is called for a miss but she is convinced that she clipped it, replays showed that she did indeed clip it but refs decisions stands because there is no VAR
Surely as the targets are so hard to see, they need VAR
This British gymnast looks like Luke Littler if life had taken a very different path.
This tennis game is so close
Does anyone know what hole the lead golfers are on? Currently have tennis and vault

14-16 seemingly with one completed round in the top 10. Mental that so many big hitters up there and with a chance with a few holes to go.
EDIT - And of course, Scottie birdies as I post this to cement himself at the top. Dude is just colossal. One hole to birdie for a -10 round to win gold
Thanks, that’s really fecked up if they have no way to challenge the decision of refs
I only really watch the masters those scores look ridiculously good? Don't recall seeing an 18 under at the end of a tournament before?
i’m off to set fire to a bin outside a pret a manger.well at least they didn’t neglect all of the curriculum.
Not uncommon - it just depends on the difficulty of the course. The majors generally have lower scores as they set them up to be the ultimate test.
Reasonably common now to be fair. DJ won the Masters at -20 a few years back... but they tend to make the Majors a bit tougher so you don't see them much, regular tour, -20's are all over the show.
Fox sisters about to go in the Kayak, they’re going to have together on this one.
You people do realise VAR costs money? Who the hell is going to pay for technology in fecking skeet shooting

Yet it was proven within seconds, without an additional penny spent. You can just use normal technology for a lot of this kind of thing.
This tennis game is fantastic
Thanks for answers re golf, makes sense!

I don't think you needed a VAR system here, just needed a video replay.You people do realise VAR costs money? Who the hell is going to pay for technology in fecking skeet shooting
What was years ago? Her surgery?
Alcaraz was no match to Djokovic in the two tie breaks. He now has gold!
Charlotte Fry I think?Greatest uneven bars final ever. Won by the greatest uneven bars routine ever done, with the highest score ever given
Simply put, legendary stuff
Me
Who? Name
I will never forget that routine. Legendary is the right word to describe it.
I guess every country might feel this way, but it does seem like Team GB has had some really bad luck at these Olympics, whether it’s dodgy refereeing decisions or incredibly close defeats (or just stupid rules in the case of things like windsurfing)
Fleetwood making a mess of 17. Think Scotty has got this won now.
Rory doing Rory things.
Fleetwood just shit the bed.

Early 2022 or late 2021.
Terrible end from Tommy, needs to par somehow and get silver
@JPRouve - context for tomorrow
Elor is the reigning world champ at 72kg. She had to drop to 68kg because 72kg isn’t an Olympic weight (10 weights at worlds, only 6 at Olympics)
She has the reigning world champ at 68kg in the first round.
