Ukraine got a 223 in the other 1/8 match.

Poor start to the Olympics continues.

Japan win in the tiebreak 29-27

21 arrows right?

I haven't been able to find a stream yet but if you are in the UK, BBC have 24 new channels and one of them will be showing it.

Once it became clear that we weren't going to finish 4th or 5th, all we needed to do to was to avoid 8th and 9th but we still messed it up

My expectation of 1.25 medals before today has gone down to 0.25 now.

Deepika's first round of 50 and the poor performance from the third archer has cost us here.

Is Dola Banerjee retired?

As long as we don't finish 8th or 9th, it is not the worst possible result.

After 12 arrows, Deepika is 35th and India are 9th, already 11 points behind Taipei. After 24 arrows, Deepika is 33th and India are 10th, 25 points behind Taipei in 4th. After 36 arrows, Deepika is 18th and India are 9th, 25 points behind Mexico in 4th. After 42 arrows, Deepika is 14th and India are...

Nightmare first round for Deepika; she is 50th. Ouch.

As usual, we don't peak at the right time.

Having said that, scores are much higher this time around. And as we saw last time around (when Mangal Champia was seeded 2nd), the seedings don't matter that much at least in the individual event but then hard to see anyone preventing a Korean sweep either.

We have to beat Japan and USA to even make it to the semis. Men's archery medal prospects are over.

Let's see whether this underwhelming trend continues later this afternoon.

We finished bottom

Tarundeep finished 31st.

This is a horribly disappointing start

When is the draw for the mixed doubles?

Great win by Jeev! In addition to grabbing the last spot in the Open championship, he moves back into the top-100 of the world golf rankings and gets a 3 year exemption into the European tour. Fantastic from Jeev. Having pretty much grown up with Jeev breaking through for Indian golf, I have always...

So is anyone else on here going to the Olympics?

Also, what's everyone's expectation for the medal tally?

I have
1 in archery
1 in boxing
1 in shooting
+ another one from archery/boxing/shooting/wrestling/tennis.
