Wow! They're typecasting their table tennis athletes.
So far, the only sport I've watched live is the indoor volleyball (naturally, because it's my favorite sport). Shocked and devastated the Williams sisters were knocked off the first round in the tennis doubles. I knew they had to lose at some point, but not this early. Meanwhile, USA continues to dominate in gymnastics and swimming. I'll leave it at that. Also, Philippines finally won a medal after 20 years! And it's not for boxing! So proud right now! I hope they can go for gold at some point. That would be historic!

Israel has won 7 medals (all-time) and now Sagi Muki qualified for the SF (after a truly amazing peeformance against Slovenian Rok Drakšič!)
Congrats to Slovenia on their success at judo Netherlands are shining at volleyball, too!

Which sport? Shooting, category Trap. Just checked it on Wikipedia. Even though I have no idea how points are given there it looks like it was extremely close.
Also the tennis tournament looks like there were lots of surprises already considering the list of people already out. However it's also a bit a weak one after so many not going.
