It’s Thursday and if you are a fan of the Olympics, you better carve out some time because there is plenty of competition set for today.
Look for rowing, rugby and what could be a terrific table tennis final.
The women's individual gymnastics competition is tonight. 'Nuff said.
In the pool, it’s Michael Phelps vs. Ryan Lochte in the finals of the 200-meter individual medley. It’s a rematch of the finals of 2004, 2008 and 2012.
