Erica Wiebe wins gold in women's 75kg wrestling!

She is the third Canadian to win a gold in wrestling after Daniel Igali and Carol Huynh.

Canada's fourth gold medal of Rio!
 
I'm not a wrestling expert by any stretch, but Erica seemed to do a really good job of keeping her hands in front of her and staying centred on the mat. No mistakes by her and she quickly capitalized on some poor footwork by the bigger, less well-conditioned Kazakh girl. Really impressive win.

Apparently Wiebe had won 34 consecutive matches at one point last year and is ranked #2 in the world.
 
Back in third after a great third throw. His lead is not large but now he knows he has to beat the German. Some Cuban had massive throws but I think he was too far behind to be a factor in the final standings.
 
If basketball had subjective scoring that was based on size, than yeah. Or do you think that Javale McGee is better than Allen Iverson?

I think something we can all agree on is that white people should get an extra point when they score a basket
