• We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!

And we're off......The Olympics....(no spoilers)

If you're gonna go down that route, there's no point having the rest of the men's 200m event as unless he falls over or injures himself, NO-ONE will get anywhere near Bolt over 200m so you might as well give him his Gold medal now.

Everyone else qualifies by being 1st & 2nd, I just don't get the fastest loser bit, why make up the numbers that way or at all?
 
Love the cat & mouse tactics in the women's sprint, the GB girls look to really have this event sewed up.
 
The men aren't too shabby either in the Keirin, but Callum Skinner relegated, I want to ride that moped at the front 😜

Same argument for why have the 2nd's if they lost their heat. Not sure why you're OK with someone losing a heat getting thru but an athlete who potentially could have run a faster time than someone who finished 1st or 2nd in a different heat going home.
 
Lord T, hope you're not missing the Womens Omnium😃

Thankfully 20 laps shorter and I read a book and looked up every few minutes. Better tactics than last night from me 😁. The sprints and Kieran are more fun happening now. I'll make a note for 4 years time to remember a book again for the points race when it comes up.

Lot better tonight, more attacking😃
 
Works well as a spectator sport, on the whole ha ha. Due to the timings this Olympics the athletics is having no impact on me but the cycling is going out peak time and is hitting the mark.

You need to retire mate😃 Golf in the morning followed by Olympics all day/evening/night.
