    It really was, but Carrington was unbelievable again. Csipes put in a huge performance too. Fisher didn't fire at all, sadly.

    The men's sevens team sucked too tbf.

    Another really pleasant surprise after she came sixth in Tokyo and got bronze in the 2022 Commonwealth Games. Awesome to see such a big step forward.

    Make that seven. Never thought I'd see a NZ Olympian get up to that sort of number.

    I felt like Elleese Andrews kinda came from nowhere with her performance in Tokyo (might just be my lack of track cycling knowledge), but she's just kept getting better and better ever since.

    Sixth Olympic gold for Carrington! Still the K2 and K1 to go, too.

    Whew, what a relief to see Kerr clear that last attempt in the high jump.

    Aimee Fisher was super impressive in that heat. She could be a big threat to Carrington this time.

    And then an incredible 0.01-second win by the 39-year-old Mawem.

    What a run by the Kiwi teenager! I wasn't expecting that at all.

    I probably said it when she won gold in Tokyo too, but Garnbret is ridiculously good at this. Perfect score for all four! Edit: Actually 99.6 out of a possible 100, but still.

    Haha yeah, and our kayak pair just then didn't fare much better. I think we'll be relying on the women for medals in this event.

    Obviously I've become well used to watching kayak sprint throughout Lisa Carrington's dominant period, but the canoe version is quite something to behold. It looks extremely uncomfortable and awkward.

    Yeah, I completely forgot about our quietly-pretty-good track cycling team. Awesome start by them last night.

    And now she's broken it again - 6.06!!! Miroslaw is extraordinary.

    Controversy in the speed climbing - seems like one of the buttons at the top might not be working.

    Pleased to see McCartney progress (even though I managed to miss her attempts entirely with badly timed channel-changing). She's been through a rough few years since her medal in Rio.
