Agents have seized more than 1,000 tickets that were being sold for high fees and allocated to the Olympic Council of Ireland.
Another name that could see a surge this year is Andy, after Wimbledon champion and Great Britain’s back-to-back gold Olympic medallist Andy Murray. “It’s unbelievable”, said Asuka Teramoto. “We fall in love with these athletes who represent our country so well and then we forget about them”.

USA Track and Field announced Wednesday morning that D’Agostino suffered a complete tear of the ACL in her right knee in addition to a meniscus tear and a strained MCL.

Biles didn’t say much on the subject, other than noting that the team sticks up for each other “no matter what”. Have you? Well, today – well, yesterday was the first day we got release the so got to see our families again for the second or third time.
After a fellow victor points out the insects to her, Biles reacts the way we all would – by running around the stadium and eventually dropping the flowers like a hot potato.

And for Biles these days, being herself is enough.
