Ok folks, Day 5:
1. Michael Phelps and the "Quest for 8" is more than halfway complete winning golds 4 and 5 to creep ever closer to history. Unbelievable watching this young man swim.
2. Well, sadly Team USA Ladies' Gymnastics lost to the Chinese in the team event. The Americans just made too many mistakes and the Chinese capitalized on their home turf. But with still the Individual competitions left, don't count our the American girls just yet.
3. Our friends from Oz have shown up and are screaming up the medal charts neck in neck with the South Koreans. Now this is more in line with my expectations for Australia. Always a contender and successful, the Aussies do not fail to disappoint. They racked up a bunch of medals in swimming today.
Also, keep an eye out on their softball team who will sure to challenge and give the Americans a run for their money. But my money is still on USA
.
4. Tied for third in the medal count with Australia are the South Koreans. They are just superb and unbeatable in archery. They suprisingly found some success in swimming too.
5. Little Taiwan beats the Netherlands in baseball
6. Georgia beat Russia in girls' Beach Volleyball - makes for some interesting intrigue there.
7. Zimbabwe has collected its 3rd silver medal - all from the same person, Kirsty Coventry.
