Another metre and we had silver.

Shame the first and third leg swimmers were quite disappointing. 2 and 4 were elite.

Also, did anyone see Titmus' coach's reaction to her winning? Think Chris Farley from Saturday Night Live. Highlight of the games.

Reminded me of the Ultimate Warrior shaking the ropes when he entered the ring

 

[Super Freak]

That take guts, to let her go and back yourself to run her down.

Yeah I was getting worried there. Ledecky was getting a good lead and I thought that was it. Then Titmus put on the afterburners and smashed it.

Fucking excellent swim. Reminded me of Ian Thorpe in the 1998 World Championship. Hackett had over a body length lead, I think even two body lengths and in the last 100m Thorpe just fucking went for it and won it.

This is the swim I'm talking about.

Hackett had a great lead in the final 100 but Thorpe flew home and snatched the win.

My 9yo son is home sick and swears blind he can see the lady swimmers boobs through their togs

Millman 2-1 down in the tie-break.

He needs to win this or it’s game over.

 

[Super Freak]

Now leads 3-2.

Come on Millman.

 

[mrslong]

reckon a blow up floatie would go alright down this kayak course,

 

[Super Freak]

Well done Millman.

He wins the tie-break to remain in the match.

He’s putting up a good fight here. The final set coming up.

COME ON MILLMAN!

 

[Super Freak]

Not a great start to this last set.

Down 2-0.

 

[Super Freak]

Millman out.

Unfortunately, his inability to keep the ball in cost him. He started improving as the set went on but it was too little too late. Still showed a bit of fight coming back from 5-1 down to make it 5-3. Based on the Spanish players reaction when he won, I think Millman was starting to really frustrate him. If he had won another game, I think it would have been very interesting.

 

[Sproj]

Not much doing for Aussies at present, what is Australia next a chance in?

 

[Scorchie]

Titmus’ swim was legendary. Well done

And the coach just topped it of.

Tomljanovic did really well but also goneskis.

The coach scared the absolute crap out of that poor Japanese volunteer.
