    She was unlucky but hopefully gets bronze
  • Every judo I've seen in this Olympics has been 0-0 with a golden score.
  • Very unlucky, could have won it.

    As long as the other bloke with him nearly wiped himself out too they're fine.

    An open air diving arena doesn't seem so appealing now!

    The men's synchronised diving commentator keeps referring to the Chinese diver, Xin Kai as 'Chink Eye'.
    I think he should apologise/be sacked etc.

    I swear the blonde diver nearer the camera is a bouncer from the venue.

    the chinese men and women both managed to make a mistake, over rotating, in the highboard (is that what it's called) but both times they both made the same mistake so it didn't cost them much

    Apart from that one!

    Well deserved medal.
  • That green diving pool is crazy, how can they not sort it out?!
  • Another bronze. Judo

    Looks like a Russian sample.
  • They should have styled it out, blue and green for the flag!
  • That diving pool, the last time colour like that it was in a hotel in the Dom Rep.
    Not many wanted to get into that one. I think something is growing in the Olympic pool.
