So clutch by tom (i think). Sailing is so nerve racking as you have no idea what is happening.

We just need to select sailors called Tom and we will top the medal tally. unbeatable dudes.

I think the Croatian has Australian blood in him. that move would be something our swimmers would do. Even Basil thought that was a bad start.

So if he finished 3rd but Croatian 7th he does win gold. Gee, you got to look behind you to figure out where the dude you going to try to beat for gold is not overtaking a few more boats back. Weird stuff this sailing to follow or even be in I guess.

The guy who came 1st probably really came last or something ridiculous like that

Wow, seeing a replay of start now. How crazy in awesome way. Wish I knew this earlier. Would have been to fun to understand and see it live at time. So the Croat basically tried to pick off the Aussie...lol.. Starting line and other yachts not even on his mind. Tactics. Fun stuff.
