I assume just track right, because they did win shotput at least.
Still, that is an amazing stat.

Steveson is the best wrestler in the world right now. Not in his weight class, but pound for pound. He's really something.
Agreed. But he doesn’t have to. I’ve never seen anything like the amount of athleticism and quickness he had from his feet.
Not disagreeing, but it's not like David is some dynamo from top in freestyle. Which is funny because of how dominant he was on time in folkstyle. I think he hit a gut or two in his early rounds, but the majority of his freestyle career (this olympics included) is a pace and takedown clinic. That's kind of the US playbook. I think Dake is probably the only one who's got reliable par terre offense.

A quick update. USA's Nelly Korda is poised to take the women's golf gold medal. She's leading the second-place players by 4 strokes (-16) in the final round.
USA is one medal shy of 100.

Thanks! I was just gonna ask on here what the approx time of the Snyder match was.
With these temps?? I would be panting after 26.2 yards.
Molly Seidel, Marathon Bronse!!!
Post race interview with family watching in Wisconsin. "We did it...I'm so tired...Drink a beer for me!! LOL.
Good stuff!!!
Caught the end of the women's I assume it was taped(?) Loved Siedel's quote to her folks back home "Have a beer for me" a true Wisconsinite.
I'd rather see more of this, wrestling, Judo, or almost anything else, than skateboarding! NBC do we have a say?
