RIO 2016: DAY 11

aboynamedgoo [Edit] [Delete] 14:37, 16 August '16

If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

Athletes better wake up to the fact that the home crowd is extremely patriotic, so if you're up against Brazil you better have nerves of steel. You will be booed, get over it.

Anyway, medals today in artistic gymnastics, athletics, badminton, boxing, canoeing, cycling, diving, marathon swimming, sailing, synchronised swimming, table tennis, weightlifting and wrestling.

Team GB may win more gold in the cycling courtesy of Laura Trott and Jason Kenny. If you're called Giles a gold medal is guaranteed in the sailing. But the event of the day is gymnastics where Amy Tinkler is up against Simone Biles (floor) and Nile Wilson looks to defeat the favourite Epke Zonderland (horizontal bar).

The weather in Rio: bright and sunny.

Over to you.
