The results from Day 7 (Friday):
Diving into the deep end:
If we’re looking at the standings for the Men's 3m, the leaderboard is basically a tug-of-war between China and Russia, with the US hanging onto fifth and Mexico rounding out the top six.
The medal standings (places 1-6) for August 10th:
01. / 8 - 3 - 0 - 1 - 0 - 0 China
The score stands at 0 - 2 - 1 - 1 - 1 - 0 against Russia.
Germany’s scoreline looks more like a chaotic math equation than an actual game result: 0 - 1 - 2 - 0 - 2 - 0.
04. / 0 - 1 - 1 - 0 - 0 - 0 USA
A string of zeros and ones like that—0-1-0-1-0-1—is about as exciting as watching paint dry in a humid basement, yet here we are looking at Canada’s performance.
06. / 0 - 0 - 2 - 0 - 0 - 1 Mexico
The score is sitting at 0-0, followed by a sequence of 1-1, 1-1, and finally 1-2 for Ukraine. It’s a slow burn, much like watching a heavy rain turn into a drizzle before someone finally decides to pick up the pace.
The scoreline for the Italy match is sitting at 0-0-1-1-0-1. Just another day at the office.
The scoreboard is looking pretty grim right now—0-0-0-2-2-1 for Team USA. Not exactly the blowout we were hoping to see.
10. / 0 - 0 - 0 - 1 - 0 - 1 Great Britain
11. / 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 1 - 1 Malaysia
12. / 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 1 - 0 Spain
SYNCHRONIZED SWIMMING:
The standings for the men's duo are looking pretty predictable: 1. Russia, 2. China, 3. Spain, 4. Canada, 5. Japan, and 6. Ukraine.
The medal standings (ranks 1-6) (part 6 of 7):
1. / 6 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 Russia
2. / 0 - 5 - 1 - 0 - 0 - 0 China
3. / 0 - 1 - 4 - 1 - 0 - 0 Spain
The score stands at 4 to 0, with Canada sitting pretty at zero wins, one draw, five losses, and nothing else to show for it.
The scoreboard currently reads 5 to 0 in favor of Japan, which feels about as one-sided as a heavyweight bout between a pro boxer and a toddler.
The scoreboard is looking pretty bleak right now: 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 1 - 5 for Ukraine.
7. / 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 1 Italy
Long-distance swimming: just another way to suffer through endless miles of water while everyone else is actually enjoying their lives.
(4/7) 3.1 miles The leaderboard looks like this: 1. Switzerland, 2. France, 3. USA, 4. Italy, 5. Russia, 6. France.
(5/7) 3.1 miles If I had to rank them, it would look like this: 1. Germany, 2. Greece, 3. Russia, 4. Italy, 5. USA, 6. Russia.
The medal standings (ranks 1-6) for part five of seven:
01. / 1 - 1 - 1 - 0 - 0 - 1 Greece
02. / 1 - 1 - 1 - 0 - 0 - 0 Germany
The scoreboard shows a messy 0-3, 1-0, 1-1, 1-1, 1-0 grind for Team USA.
04. / 1 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 Great Britain
April 1st—it's looking like a total shutout for Switzerland.
That scoreline against Italy is just a total disaster—it’s like watching a championship contender trip over their own feet in the first quarter.
07. / 0 - 1 - 0 - 1 - 1 - 0 Australia
The score stands at 0-1, with France pulling ahead early in this one.
09. / 0 - 0 - 2 - 0 - 2 - 1 Russia
The scoreline is looking pretty bleak—nothing but zeros and a single point for Argentina to show for it. It’s basically a shutout in progress.
11. / 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 0 - 1 Brazil
The scoreboard is looking pretty grim right now: 11 to 0, with nothing but zeros filling in the gaps for Spain.
