Sky Brown, Rayssa Leal, and Momiji Nishiya are the new big names in Skateboarding
If the whoever owns the Tony Hawk videogame series are looking for a name to replace the boarding legend I think they have found their girls

Poor KJT. Heartbreaking to see her break down in a race and then get up to cross the line, only to be disqualified for leaving her lane. Hopefully she can recover and defend her World title next year.

Managed to catch the 200m race, very happy for Andre De Grasse considering he's been in the shadow of Usain Bolt for as long as Usain Bolt was a thing.

End of Day 12, and the only major change in the standings is Great Britain passing Australia and βRussiaβ to go into 4th on a most silvers tiebreaker. China still leads by most gold, the US still leads by overall medals, and Syria winning a wrestling bronze makes it 85 nations on the board with four days of action left to go.

And Portugal got its first (and most likely only) gold medal in these Olympics with Pedro Pablo Pichardo in men's triple jump!

End of Day 13, and China (34-24-16) are still holding off the United States (29-35-27) in the medal count for most golds, although the US seemingly have the overall total lead locked up. Japan (22-10-14) still lies in third, while Australia (17-5-19) sneak back ahead of βRussiaβ (16-22-20) and Great Britain (16-18-17) for fourth. Germany, France, Italy and the Netherlands round out the top 10, but I will also make a quick mention of New Zealand in 11th (7-6-6), having their best Olympic Games on record.
88 nations are on the board, with the Bahamas, Grenada and, winning their first ever Olympic medal, Burkina Faso, joining in today.
