Noah Lyles wins in a photo finish 9.79

Gotta admit for all the hype he does deliver on the big stages.. really thought this race would crack a high 9.6 tho

Just goes to show how dominant Usain Bolt was

Meg Harris wins her first individual Olympic medal with a silver in the 50m freestyle.
She clocked a massive PB to become the 3rd fastest Australian in history.

What a run from Bree Masters! The Birmingham 2022 bronze medallist became the first Aussie female to compete in a 100m semi-final since Sydney 2000, finishing 7th!

Yeah great thread i love it!

But i don't get how guys like Jason day... Novak & raffa can compete when they're pros

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Athletes are pro's. Always have been. Not many amateurs at all in all sports.

Yeah great thread i love it!

Yet boxers can’t if they turn pro.
Everyone is a pro if they can be. Do they think Jess Fox is going to work for 40 hours a week and still training and competing? I heard the Fox family were all staying together in a fancy motel, probably The Ritz. Where do they think that money is coming from, her day job?

No idea lmao. She had a dream run though gr8 stuff.
Harry Garside fought for us and he's a pro-boxer,
knocked off by amateur, depends on the sport I suppose

Dream Team?
What are they worth?
