Big payoff on the chinese girl. Yep sportz I'm still up, Olympics are a great opportunity to make money :wink:

Yeah, I couldn't believe the odds yesterday. Luo has a very good record and shouldn't have been so long in the betting. I don't want to use that nasty sporting term that I'm thinking of to describe Liesel, but unfortunately it fits. In major events, she always seems to swim faster in heats and semis than she does in the final.

Well done thorpey!!! Without doubt our greatest Olympian of all time.
Well done Mr.J for finding the chinese swimmer. You must really do your homework well.

Philippoussis defeated by Rochus 3-6, 6-0, 6-1. Press are saying shock defeat :smile:
