US wins the first gold medal of the 2016 Olympic games: women's 10m air rifle. Congrats to Virginia Thrasher, who at only 19 beat two veteran Chinese former gold medal winners.

The olympics really stretches the idea of an athlete too. The Chinese table tennis team could be the furthest thing from the definition of what an athlete looks like. You know your "sport" is good when you can convert your crucial equipment into a better more exciting drinking game.

The people who are really good at table tennis are definitely athletes. You wouldn't compare the Dream Team to a game of HORSE with your buddies.

Looking forward to watching a ton of volleyball today.
 
Furthest from elite athletes are probably the curlers.
 
usa loses to serbia in m water polo and fiji in w rugby.
 
yeah croatia sorry.

2 6 team water polo pools. usa in the harder pool. round robin with 5 prelim matches. then top 4 from each pool move on i think to single elimination.
 
It would be funny if they played in actual harder pools. Like with floating mines.

From reddit
was a controlled explosion of a suspect bag, but New Zealand Journalists claim to have have saw bullet holes on the stadium aswell.



Controlled demolition of suspect bag at the finish line of the road cycling race.

A single bullet came through the roof of the equestrian centre. Not to be too crass but...this is Rio. That's not exactly an indicator of anything unusual.
