Saint J 77 Posted 5 August, 2012 Share Posted 5 August, 2012 To pick himself up from defeat a month ago, to face the same gauntlet again and to prevail in that imperious fashion. Andy Murray, that was heroic. Agreed, well done Andy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazlo78 Posted 5 August, 2012 Share Posted 5 August, 2012 More dominence at the velodrome from Kenny Did you see the Danish rider in the Omnium who was in thrid place before their 5th event? He crashed and had to get a new bike - his suit was torn in several places and he had some nasty abrasions(?). For some reason he managed to end in 6th place in the event which moved him to joint 1st place overall before the last event! Before yesterday, I had never heard of Omnium Clip here: http://www.dr.dk/Sporten/OL2012/Cykling/2012/08/05/181353.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a chance Clancy can win gold as he's the best in the field at the kilometer. However it all depends on how the others above him place. Definitely on for a medal of some sort though.

I couldn't recognize a good effort in that discipline, but it looked like he really gave it his all. Fingers firmly crossed for some sort of medal for him - as stated a few times already, we need all we can get Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saintandy666 Posted 5 August, 2012 Share Posted 5 August, 2012 Murray is carrying Robeson IMO Robson really had a bad match tbh. Seen her play much better than that.

The Cat Posted 5 August, 2012 Share Posted 5 August, 2012 Fair play to Hansen and big congratulations to him, but I feel for Clancy. He lost the Gold by not being in the front group that gained a lap in the scratch race. A ridiculous Kilometer time from Clancy though that would have won many world titles in the past. Especially good considering it came after 2 previous events on the same day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pap Posted 5 August, 2012 Share Posted 5 August, 2012 Superb Olympics so far. There's an image doing the rounds on Facebook at the moment asking for more role models like Jessica Ennis, rather than Jordan. Perhaps that's too much too hope for, but it has been humbling and inspiring to see the dedication and commitment of the world's best. The performance of Team GB has been excellent. For a nation with just under 70 million, very good return so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazlo78 Posted 5 August, 2012 Share Posted 5 August, 2012 The interview with the silver medalist in rowing just highlights what a terrible attitude footballers have when it comes to England That was what the will to win is. Can Rooney and co come away from the euros saying they have their all. Well, going on the pop to Vegas before hand suggest he never These Olympics have really shown what representing your nation is all about Only saw that interview just now - just wow.
