Tokyo Olympics

[Stella180]

A few more medals including our 11th gold courtesy of our equestrians in the team eventing and Tom McEwen earns a silver in the individual category.

In other news today history was made in the women’s 87kg+ weightlifting. New Zealand’s Lauren Hubbard became the first transgender person to compete in a category differing from their gender at birth. Not only that but Emily Campbell earned herself a silver medal, the first ever GB Olympic weightlifting medal by a woman. She was beaten by an Olympic record lift by China’s Li Wenwen.

GB women took or Spain in the hockey quarterfinals and at 2-2 on the final whistle the match was decided by a penalty shootout where Maddie Hinch was a brick wall in goal and the difference between the two sides and we are rewarded with a semi against The Netherlands.
