Best storyline of the Olympics, regardless of what might happen in the 2nd week.
Monica's gold medal was just an amazing show of skill and tenacity.
She and Del Potro should go on a tour for the entire tennis world to enjoy - they truly can win, and have emotions to show for it.
And Jack Sock's gold medal winning smile - where is the toothpaste company willing to pay him for it?
Yes, I agree Monica Puig's performance was extraordinary. Interesting to see that she and Keys are contemporaries. It's not always the person who breaks out first who has the bigger career but it is indicative of SOMETHING.
I wonder if Del o will be playing for old in Tokyo? I suspect that will be Kei's to lose...
