good morning !
We’re almost a week into the Olympics now, and it’s already brought about some great moments. Like Simone Biles and Leon Marchand dominating, that one surfer in the picture, the athlete sponsored by Gene Parmasean cheese.
As a tennis fan, it’s a bit of a sombre one. We had to bid farewell to the careers of not one, but three future Hall of Famers: Angelique Kerber, Andy Murray (and probably Rafael Nadal). But they all left with some great moments on the clay.
I guess now it’s about watching all the different sports, all at once. It’s too many, sometimes. Like, how can a person choose between fencing and archery? Especially when the fencing venue is this?
There are some sports I always need to watch: handball, canoe, kayak (which is similar to canoe I think), swimming, archery, fencing (which makes choosing between archery and fencing so difficult).
And then, of course, there’s the marathon. The grandest event of all. But more on that next week.
Anyways, there’s plenty of sports to watch this weekend. What will you be watching?
