So much credit for Hoy, 4 golds, a knighthood and global acclaim as one of the all time greats, and still had the heart to put in another 4 years and bag 2 more golds.  Absolute legend.

Quite right.  And only 36.  Kind of makes you think what you've been doing with your own time.

So how many high jumpers are still in it with Grabarz? (And if he wasn't mercilessly teased at school for that surname I will have lost my faith in today's youth)

Great last 200m from Osagie in the 800m to get through to the final.

Osagie did well there but watching the 800M semi line up and the general lack of Brits in there I wonder what happened to Coe/Ovett/Cram legacy?

Through to the semi final in the Hockey after a nervy draw against the Spanish.
