Most difficult Bronze in history?

1/13 PC conversions for Germany. Crazy.

recorded the last 30 secs of match play - but more like 41 secs - because of the clock getting stuck for 10 secs!! That last PC should not have happened at all !!

I am back... Nicely had my tea, watched 5 minutes of Korean drama to calm down, then watched Aditi finishing her round with birdie on the 18th to be tied at the top. Right now some crow is on the grill. Some tea is left in the pot to wash it down too. I am sure no crow ever will taste as good as it is about to taste.

Looks like I had company. A bunch of weak-hearted guys who just couldn't take it. I am sure a lot of people in India did the same when we gave up that third goal, which was the dumbest thing I might have ever seen. I guess we all make a beeline to the NBCOlympics site for the replay video now.

But, what an accomplishment. My son just texted me that Sreejesh had to save a PC as time ran out?

I am so glad to see a second Malayali Olympic medal winner. Had a Malayali at the goal for the last medal 49 years ago, and now we have two of them. God's own goalkeepers. Kerala Model for hockey. Get a Malayali at the goal. Medals will come :)
